How many BTU per ton of coal?
20 Million BTU ****************** The heat content of coal varies. Bituminous coal typically has a gross heating value of 30,600,000 BTU per ton. The net heating value is 26,000,000 BTU per ton, assuming 85% efficiency. If you need more precise information, go to the U.S. Department of Energy website at www.doe.gov and search on the heat content of coal. -ecn
How much is coal worth today?
Coal comes in many types - for many uses. Thermal Coal: Primary for Power Generation - can be as affordable as $13.25 per ton Metallurgical Coal: Primary for Manufacturing Cost as much as $300+ per ton Difference: Based in the energy content measured in BTU's - British Thermal Units Low: 8,400 Btu's per Pound High: 15,000 Btu's per Pound Most often thermal coal cost less than Rail Road rates to carry the coal to power plants / other facilities

Is electricity better than coal or oil for heating?
No it is not. To explain: Coal produces 6,150 kWh of heat per ton, and that heat only converts 40% of that into electricity - so pound per pound burning coal as a direct heat source produces less pollution and uses less coal than converting the coal into electricity and then back to heat (IE: a 40% loss). Heating Oil lowers the cost per kWh or BTU by around 40.6% (or about the same amount).To heat the average home, by fuel use & cost:Oil - $1,247 or 138,700 BTU per gallonNatural Gas - $1,463 or 100,000 BTU per ThermWood - $2,102 or 8,000 BTU per pound (High pollutant)Propane - $2,523 or 92,000 BTU per gallonElectric - $4,071 or 3,413 BTU per kWhSource: Energy Information Agency, U.S. Dept. of Energy 2007
