How does the fossil fuel coal contain energy from the sun?
Plants use the energy from the sun to make food. They depend on sunlight to power chemical reactions vital for life. In a number of instances, plants that lived long ago died, and their remains built up in a layer or layers. As more and more overburden was deposited on top of the layer, compression and time changed the "plant material" into coal. This gives rise to the idea that the fossil fuel coal contains energy from the sun.

How is coal fuel connected to the sun?
Coal was formed from plant matter that was covered by mud or silt and subjected to intense heat and pressure over millions of years. The sun is the source of energy for all plants, therefore all of the energy held in coal originated from the sun.

It would depend on where you bought your coal. In local shops you can buy bags of coal in 10kgs and 25kgs. Coal delivered by a coalman is usually 50kg bag.
Where does coal gets its energy from?
Coal is made up from ancient plants. It contains energy of sun
What are the original sources of energy for both coal and wind?
The source of the energy in coal and wind can ultimately be traced to the Sun. Coal is the compressed remains of vegetation that grew millions of years ago, so that was produced by the sun. Wind is part of our weather, and that is also driven by the sun.
