Another advanced coal technology is coal gasification, a process in which coal is converted to a gas (called syngas) before it is burned, making it easier to separate CO2 as a relatively pure gas before power is generated.
Advantages of using coal to produce electricity: Coal energy is an affordable energy source because of the coalâs stable price compared to other fuel sources; Coal is easy to burn; Coal produces high energy upon combustion; Coal energy is inexpensive; Coal is abundant; Coal energy is a reliable energy source; Disadvantages of using coal to produce electricity: Coal energy produces large amount of carbon dioxide which leads to global warming and climate change
