We work at a lab testing wood and charcoal burning stoves. Charcoal doesn't burn hotter than wood in a stove. That's why it's better for broiling not burning steaks.

Also charcoal can be made and sold by the rural poor to the urbanites who have more money. And charcoal is lighter than wood for transport. However, more than half of the energy in the wood is wasted when turning wood into charcoal! From an ecological perspective it's a lot better to burn wood cleanly. Charcoal is almost pure carbon ... no moisture, no extraneous chemicals. But don't forget, charcoal is a residue ... a lot of wood was burned to make it.
