"Clean coal" refers to technologies that reduce the environmental impact of burning coal for electricity generation, such as carbon capture and storage (CCS) to capture and store carbon dioxide emissions. However, the term is controversial as coal remains a major source of greenhouse gas emissions and environmental damage even with these technologies.
