U.S. COAL RESERVES
RECOVERABLE - 10% U.S.G.S - 50% DOE
“UNRECOVERABLE” - TECHNOLOGICALLY - ECONOMICALLY - (EXTRACTION, RECLAMATION COSTS)

SUPPLIES OF COAL
UNITED STATES - 3 TRILLION TONS (50% IN WYOMING, MONTANA, NORTH DAKOTA)
WESTERN COAL - 60% LOW SULFUR (0.7%S) - AT STRIP MINING DEPTH - >1000 MILES FROM DEMAND CENTERS - $5- $7/TON

AVAILABLE COAL ENERGY
3 TRILLION TONS X 50% RECOVERABLE X 2000 LB/TON X 10,000 BTU/LB = 3 X 1019 BTU
- 1980 U.S. CONSUMPTION = 80X1015 BTU (TOTAL) - 375 YEAR SUPPLY
AT PRESENT COAL CONSUMPTION RATES (20 X 1015 BTU/YEAR) - 1500 YEAR SUPPLY

Coal Summary…..• The good news….
– High energy content– We have a lot of it
• The bad news….– Solids, air pollution issues– Mine safety– Not easy to transport
