Generating coal power. Coal contains energy that the plants absorbed from the sun â burning coal releases this energy. It can be used to heat water to generate steam, which is then used to drive a turbine to generate electricity. Coal is generally considered to be a reliable energy source for generating electricity. In 2013 around 29% of the world's electricity was generated using coal, and in 2014, coal-fired power stations supplied about 29% of the electricity used in the UK. Coal is abundant but finite.
By 1875, coke (which is made from coal) replaced charcoal as the primary fuel for iron blast furnaces to make steel. The burning of coal to generate electricity is a relative newcomer in the long history of this fossil fuel. It was in the 1880s when coal was first used to generate electricity for homes and factories.Long after homes were being lighted by electricity produced by coal, many of them continued to have furnaces for heating and some had stoves for cooking that were fueled by coal.t was in the 1880s when coal was first used to generate electricity for homes and factories.
