OverviewCarbon dioxide emissionsHistoryTransport and delivery of coalOperationCoal power generationEfficiencyIntegrated gasification combined cycle design

As coal is mainly carbon, coal-fired power stations have a high carbon intensity. On average, coal power stations emit far more greenhouse gas per unit electricity generated compared with other energy sources (see also life-cycle greenhouse-gas emissions of energy sources). In 2018 coal burnt to generate electricity emitted over 10 Gt CO2 of the 34 Gt total from fuel combustion (the overall tot…
