Advantages and Disadvantages of Coal as a Energy Source


 Advantages: 

- It's easily transported to many areas in the world

- Inexpensive to buy on open market due to large reserves and easy access ability 

- Coal is the least expensive fossil fuel because it is rather simple to mine

- Coal powered generation scales well, which makes it possible to build a variety of sizes of generation plants

-Since coal is a fossil fuel, it can be used to build power stations almost anywhere as long as there are 
large amounts of it


Disadvantages:

- Coal must be mined and and strip mining ruins habitats

- Underground coal mining is dangerous because cave-ins and explosions are common which in turn, costs many miners their lives 

- Non-renewable and fast depleting 

- Leaves behind harmful remains which harm the environment upon combustion

- Mining of coal creates unstoppable damage to the environment

- Coal will eventually run out
