Interesting to know that all this pit left out of those chimneys or as power trough the power cables.

All the brown coal that was dug to this earth, was converted into CO2 gas, soot, some sulpherides and nitrides, and power. And hot air.

Ah, ok, sorry, it just sounded odd the first time I read it.

Thechnically, none of it was converted to power, merely a bit of the energy in the bonds between the atoms. All of the atoms in the coal go out the tall stacks or as ash or other waste.

The large majority goes out as carbondioxide, only a small portion becomes ashes.

Don't get too excited by the picture. What you are seeing is water vapour from the cooling towers.
