The coal used is small coal, or slack, specially selected because of its low sulphur content. The grab is taking coal from the reserve store of about 70,000 tons, enough to run the station for two months at normal load. Underneath these hills of coal is the intricate system of intakes which supply water from the Thames for the boilers.
