Also needs less coal.

And after that less natural gas, but getting rid of coal should be the higher priority as it is the greater polluting fuel.

Fair. I wonder if the chart includes the coal typically needed to make steel.

unless that coal is somehow also generating power, i doubt it, electricity production including a source that isn't electricity production is... weird.
