Coal trading market influences the growth of utilities, infrastructure, and manufacturing sectors across the
globe. The coal trading market is estimated to expand during the forecast period owing to increase in
infrastructure and power requirements in all geographies of the world. Rise in demand for power and
growth in population are some of the important factors affecting the demand for coal. Coal is used in wide
range of application. This includes power, steel and cement. Energy is critical to sustainable development.
Coal usage supports business and industry, so that they can achieve economic growth.
Coal is traded by its caloric value through its types such as lignite, sub-bituminous, bituminous and
anthracite. Anthracite has the highest caloric value and is the costliest coal. Lignite being a low grade coal
has the lowest calorific value and is cheap. Increased usage of sub-bituminous is linked with its good
calorific value and abundant availability. Thermal and metallurgical coal are types for bituminous coal and
has a huge demand in coal trading market. Bituminous coal’s high volatile content makes it ignite easily
and suitable for power generation. Low cost of lignite coal makes it widely used in mid-sized power
industries, where major concern is to decrease the overall cost of electricity. Major lignite based power
plants are located close to mines to minimize transportation cost. Anthracite being the best coal in terms
of calorific value is least available and highly priced in international market.
The coal demand plays a vital role in power generation and is set to continue. Coal is used in variety of
sectors such as in iron and steel production, and cement production etc. Rapid population growth demands
more power. Price of coal is dependent on its logistics cost. Coal has to be transported to the end-user
before it can be used. Transportation cost accounts for a large
share of total delivered price of the coal. Major coal fired power plants are located near to coal mines in
order to minimize transportation cost. For short distances, from mine to the market, coal is transported
through trucks, conveyor. For long distances, from mine to the market, coal is transported through ships
and pipelines. Coal is mixed with water in order to transport it through pipelines
Growing population has resulted in energy poverty. The world currently lacks energy security and improved
access to electricity. Clean coal technology usage in various applications such as coal fired power plants,
carbon capture and storage can make the world’s coal resource to be used in line with environmental and
climate norms. Research and development activities, focusing on increasing the overall efficiency of clean
