What power was first used to generate electricity in 1890?
Simple answer, coal. We, as humans, have used coal since the bronze age for heat. In the 1800's when the industrial revolution started, coal was used to boil water. this water could drive a turbine, which is basically how we get our power today, things haven't changed too much in that respect.
How much coal was used each day?
The amount of coal used each day can vary widely based on factors such as the size of the power plant, its efficiency, and the electricity demand. On average, a coal-fired power plant might consume thousands of tons of coal per day to generate electricity.
How much coal is required to generate 1 ton of steam?
On average, it takes about 0.4 to 0.5 tons of coal to generate 1 ton of steam in a coal-fired power plant. However, this can vary depending on the efficiency of the plant and the quality of the coal being used.

How many other coal plants would it take to replace nuclear plants?
Depends on the amount of electrical energy they (need to) generate. How much does the average nuclear plant generate ? How much does the average coal plant generate ?
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.
How much does it cost to generate electricity from coal?
According to the Royal Academy of Academy of Engineers (yes they are British), it costs between 2.7 and 3.2 pence per kilowatt hour. Maybe that is helpful
