The surface mining of coal, refineries and shipping terminals, power plants and transmission lines all occupy land.

Whereas a coal burning plant, a normal one gigawatt coal plant, burns 80 rail cars of coal a day, each car having 100 tons.

You can see the coal burning plant in the background.

Clean coal technologies were at least 25 percent more efficient than traditional coal fired power plants.

Denmark, which houses some of the most efficient coal fired power plants in the world, equally relies on coal for half of its electricity production. The same is true for Germany, which is home to some of the most efficient pulverized coal combustion units in Europe.

The powerhouse, the telephone exchange, these I concede.

Energy efficiency improvements at coal and diesel powered generating stations, hydroelectric facilities, nuclear power plants, and combined heat and power plants were specifically mentioned as were efforts to diminish losses from the transportation and distribution of electricity and natural gas.

From 1996 to 2000, China also closed down many coal fired power plants that were producing less than 50 MW of power.

But this approach would still consume too much of the CO2 budget. Even the most modern and advanced conventional coal fired power plants emit over 15 times more CO2 per unit of electricity than renewable energy systems, and more than twice the amount of efficient gas fired power stations.

Put differently, if the world continues to build coal fired power plants at the current rate, those plants will still be around in 2050, regardless of what other technologies become viable in the meantime. Solar power cannot stop those coal fired plants from being built today.

The electricity sector is largely characterized by monopolies, with significant overcapacity and little recent use of existing coal powered plants.

In coal production areas, coal marketing and transport service agencies may be set up to provide marketing and transport services for medium sized and small coal mines.

The bombing destroyed much of the Zahrani oil refinery.

The power plant of tomorrow is no power plant.

And I expect they get more gas in the pipes at some times... than they does at others.

All oil, coal and gas as well as about 97 per cent of electricity is imported the rest of the electricity is produced by industries and hydropower stations.

And last year marked half a century since a nuclear power plant first supplied energy to the electricity grid in what is now the Russian Federation.

An emission is calculated as if the net amount of electricity imported was produced under average conditions in Danish coal fired power plants.

It was suggested that the list of examples in the second sentence of paragraph 58 should be expanded by adding, for example, the coal fired power sector, power transmission, roads and railways.

But one day of coal adds up to one hell of a lot of carbon dioxide in a normal one gigawatt coal fired plant.

Methyl mercury is formed in the ocean from mercury created by the burning of fossil fuels such as petroleum and coal in automobiles and power plants.

You even told your own mum you fell off the gas works for a bet.

Article 55 Coal mining enterprises, coal trading enterprises, transport enterprises and customers shall supply, transport, and accept and unload coal according to law, the relevant regulations of the State Council or the agreement in contracts.

Electricity, generator fuel and gas

But the gas comes in pipes, ma'am.

There, competition in electricity generation has spurred shifts from coal and oil to natural gas, which is burned in high efficiency units, and increased productivity in nuclear plants.

Five weeks ago, a group of activists from the business community gathered together to stop a Texas utility from building nine coal fired electrical plants that would have contributed to destroying the environment.

And does nuclear really compete with coal?

Least developed countries, on the other hand, face the challenge of small ageing power plants, obsolete urban electricity grids or inadequate distribution networks in rural areas all these factors raise the cost of delivered energy.

Pre Fukushima, a report from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), The Future of Nuclear Power, 2003, as well as a study by researchers at the University of Chicago, established that nuclear energy was 50 100 more expensive than energy from coal or gas. The report of the Working Group on Power of the Planning Commission of India puts the cost of energy from the country s coal based plants at about one third lower than nuclear power, with gas 50 cheaper.

It's not gas. It's electric.

It is little wonder, then, that US Energy Secretary Steven Chu, who two years ago described the expansion of coal fired power plants as his worst nightmare, now calls coal a great natural resource.

And there could be additional knock on effects since the smelter consumes around 10 per cent of Victoria's entire electricity output.

Two new thermal power plants are under construction, which are much more efficient than the older ones.
