Coal Transport

Coal transport involves moving coal from mines to power plants or other users. This can be done via various methods, including trains, trucks, barges, or ships. Rail transport is most common for large quantities, where coal is loaded into railcars and routed over extensive networks. Barges and ships are used to move coal over waterways, especially for international trade. Efficient transportation is vital for ensuring coal reaches its destination safely and cost-effectively, supporting electricity generation and industrial processes. Proper logistics and infrastructure are essential to handle the volume, maintain safety, and minimize environmental impacts.
