its not just coal burning that makes energy. the bergen powerhouse; that supplies most, if not all of the electricity for this area, uses jet engines. the biggest ones made....run on jet fuel, which is refined diesel. they in turn spin a generator, making electricity. also, the hot exhaust is routed through a coil of water, making steam, which is then fed through another generator, making more electricity.
