Coal steam turbine · Energy KnowledgeBase
Since coal typically arrives at a power plant via barge or train, most coal power plants need an onsite fuel storage system. After moving the solid fuel from where it's stored, the coal must be prepared for burning by crushing it to create particles that are sized appropriately for the two technologies that are most commonly used.

Coal Fired Power Plant | Working of Coal Power Plant
Coal-fired plants produce electricity by burning coal in a boiler to produce steam. The steam produced, under tremendous pressure, flows into a turbine, which spins a generator to create electricity. The steam is then cooled, condensed back into the water, and returned to the boiler to start the process over.
