Its rich carbon content gives coal most of its energy content When coal is burned in the presence of air or oxygen, heat energy is released This energy can then be converted to other forms of useful energy Primary applications for coal are thermal (eg, electricity generation) and metallurgical (eg, coking or steelmaking coal) Key facts The main use of coal is electricity
