How is energy transformed in a coal burning power plant?

The energy in coal is stored as chemical potential energy.When the coal is burned, this chemical energy is converted to heat. The boiler converts this thermal energy into pressure of the steam.The pressure energy in the steam is then converted into rotating mechanical energy using the turbine. As the turbine spins the generator, the generator converts this into electrical energy.


Where do they occur chemical to thermal to current?

The burning of coal or natural gas in an electrical generation plant would follow those steps. Starting as a hydrocarbon with lots of potential energy, it would be burned to heat water, which would then boil and create stream would would in turn drive a turbine attached to an electrical generator.
