Electricity is most often generated at a power station by electromagnetically generators, primarily driven by heat engines fueled by chemical combustion or nuclear fission but also by other means such as the kinetic energy of flowing water and wind. So if the electromagnetically generators were to mix with the kinetic energy of the flowing water there will be so many bad damages if you were near the reaction.

Does the Crist power plant produce electricity by burning coal to create steam to power a turbine?
Yes the James F. Crist Generating Plant located in Pensacola, Florida burns coal to both heat and turn water into steam which is used to turn a turbine connected to an electrical generator which produces the electricity. It's total generating capacity is 970,000 KW, and it has four (4) generating units.
What is an advatage of using coal power over solar power to generate electricity?

What are the good points of using coal?
the good points of coal are it gives us electricity, we need to power our vehicles.Because you can reuse it but the bad thing is that it takes a long time to heat up ..... !!
What is the disadvantage of using coal to generate electricity?
There are several disadvantages to using coal to generate electricity. When coal is burned, it releases lots of carbon dioxide, which is a problem because the atmosphere already has too much carbon dioxide and it is causing global warming. In addition, there are impurities in coal which result in other forms of air pollution, particularly sulfur dioxide which results in acid rain. Coal mining is also a dangerous activity that results in many deaths. And although there is a lot of coal, it is still not a renewable resource, and it will eventually run out, if we continue to burn it.
