Coal Power Plant is one of two sources of electricity in the game. It generates both Electricity Tokens 
and electricity for the electrical network burning coal 
mined at the Coal Mines.
Processes
The base building produces 1 Electricity Token burning 4 units of coal every 3 Game ticks. There are 3 extensions available, each increasing the token production by burning more coal faster. Fully upgraded Coal Power Plant generates 2.8 Electricity Tokens burning 7.3 units of coal every Game tick. It also adds network capacity to electrify 17 more industrial complexes.
Please note: While a fully upgraded power station generates more Electricity Tokens faster, it also burns through the fuel supply at the adjacent station much faster. The power plant generates electricity for your connected industry only when there is fuel available, otherwise all the connected industries lose the electrification bonus. It is advisable to upgrade the power plant only after you have well established supply line with sufficient fuel reserve.
