yes it is for several things.
Coal has been used as a fuel for centuries, and sometimes as a crude pencil-type drawing implement.

One example of a solid fuel is coal. Coal was used in many early factories during the beginning of the industrial, but was phased out because it was not a clean burning fuel source.
Coal is primarily used for electricity generation and as a fuel source in industrial processes such as steel production. It is also used in the production of cement and as a heat source for residential and commercial buildings.

Coal was used as a source of fuel and energy.
No, while peat can be used a fuel, it is in the same class a wood it is not a fossil fuel. The form of coal that has undergone the least diagenesis (and is still a fossil fuel) is called "Lignite".
