Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that coal remains the world's largest single source of electricity generation?

Yes. Two reference sources state that coal is currently the largest source of electricity globally, and a study of Chinese cities notes coal is the primary energy source there. The claim is directly supported by the global statements.
