Thermal coal is used for generating energy in power plants for producing electricity. Thermal coal is firstly deducted to fine powder form by the use of a pulverizer. Thermal coal in powder form helps to ease the burning process as well as increases the overall surface area. The heat energy produced by the powdered thermal coal helps to convert the water present in the boilers into steam. This stem when transferred into turbine and released with high pressure helps to rotate the blades of the turbine, thereby driving the generator located at the other end of the shaft to produce electricity. The increasing rate of industrialization and rising demand for electricity is a prime factor augmenting the growth of the global thermal coal market during the forecast period, 2021 and 2031.
Thermal coal is used in a wide range of applications such as cement production, power generation, construction, automotive, energy & power and others. Thus, the increasing demand from these industries will serve as the key growth driver of the global thermal coal market during the forecast period set between 2021 and 2031. Electricity not only powers houses, buildings, and offices but also serves as the key energy source for various daily devices such as mobile phones, smartphones, laptops, PCs, tablets, television, and others.

The nature of market for Thermal Coal is consolidated on account of the presence of a few players. Despite this, the competition is intense on account of the increasing efforts by players to strive for the leading position. At present, Tata Power Company Ltd., holds the maximum share in the global thermal coal market on account of its expanded brand base. The other players are engaging in collaborations, joint ventures and merger and acquisition strategies to ensure a notable position in the market competition.
Some of the key players of the global Thermal Coal Market include:
The rapid rate of industrialization and increasing population are prime growth drivers augmenting the growth of the global thermal coal market. Besides this, thermal coal is also used in calcination process of limestone in order to produce cement. As cement is majorly used in the construction industry, thus, the increasing demand for thermal coal from various industries such as cement production, construction and building, and others will also bolster the growth of this market.
Geographically, the global thermal coal market is widespread into the regions of North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia Pacific, and the Middle East and Africa. These regions are further categorized into nations. Among these, Asia Pacific holds the largest share on account of high revenue generation from the developing nations namely, India, and China. This is further accountable to the presence of large number of and unexplored coal mines. Coal import and export stands as an important business in the aforementioned countries and therefore, this region is likely to continue dominating the market in the forecast period as well.
