As domestic and commercial electricity demand expanded, coal use in electricity generation grew steadily to peak at 1,045 million tons in 2007. The second coal transition occurred around 2008, when consumption fell rapidly, in large part due to rapid declines in the cost of natural gas, wind, and solar.

Stage 1 The first conversion of energy takes place in the boiler. Coal is burnt in the boiler furnace to produce heat. Carbon in the coal and Oxygen in the air combine to produce Carbon Dioxide and heat. Stage 2 The second stage is the thermodynamic process. The heat from combustion of the coal boils water in the boiler to produce steam.

Coalfired power plants are a major source of emissions for a number of air pollutants including SO2, NOx, particulate matter (PM), HCl, HF, Hg, and so on. Hazardous air pollutants such as As, Be, Cd, Cr, Pb, Mn, Ni, Se, and other metals are integral components of fine PM that are also emitted directly from coalfired power plants. The potential problem of coalfired power plants associated to ...

In power plants, generating a kilowatthour of electricity from coal requires on average about onethird more energy than producing a kilowatthour from natural gas. Although more electricity was generated by natural gas than by coal in 2016, it was not until 2019 that more natural gas was used to generate electricity than coal.

The overall decline in electricity demand in 2020 and recordlow natural gas prices led coal plants to significantly reduce the percentage of time that they generated power. In 2020, the utilization rate (known as the capacity factor) of coalfired generators averaged 40%.Before 2010, coal capacity factors routinely averaged 70% or more. This year's higher natural gas prices have ...

The levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) is a metric that attempts to compare the costs of different methods of electricity generation consistently. Though LCOE is often presented as the minimum constant price at which electricity must be sold to break even over the lifetime of the project, such a cost analysis requires assumptions about the value of various nonfinancial costs (environmental ...

ARTICLE Coal Coal is a nonrenewable fossil fuel that is combusted and used to generate electricity. Mining techniques and combustion are both dangerous to miners and hazardous to the environment; however, coal accounts for about half of the electricity generation in the United States.
