Coal has many important uses worldwide. The most significant uses of coal are in electricity generation, steel production, cement manufacturing and as a liquid fuel. Steam coal is also known as thermal coal. It is mainly used in power generation. Coal plays a vital role in electricity generation worldwide. Coal-fired power plants currently fuel 38% of global electricity and, in some countries; an even higher percentage. India is the third largest producer of coal in the world.  Furthermore, non-coking coal reserves make up about 85% while coking coal reserves are the remaining 15%.

The coal mines have resulted in Environmental factors. Coalgamation affects the area of land, forests, humans, water and agriculture. The coal mines cause pollution in the environment. Vidarbha coal is a kind of bituminous coal Large quantities of thermal power plants have been created in the districts of Chandrapur and Nagpur, due to the large number of coal stocks in Vidarbha.
