Coal Production Overview Coal fuels about 50% of the country's electrical generation* Nuclear 20% Natural Gas 18% Hydroelectric 7% Fuel Oil 2% Biomass 2% Other 1% Coal production in the U.S. in 2003 was approximately 1.1 billion tons The country's abundant recoverable coal reserves of over 269 billion tons help to provide a lower cost energy source and U.S. energy independence Coal is one of the lowest cost fuels for base-load electric power generation - considerably less expensive than natural gas or oil Natural gas prices are likely to continue to stay high due to domestic supply limitations New technologies, including coal gasification, show promise in cost-effectively reducing emissions Energy sector shows moderate growth, but growth could be higher in coal industry if natural gas prices stay high and coal gasification technology continues to develop NAC *Source: Edison Electrical Institute

NAC Focuses on Lignite Coal NAC NAC is the nation's largest miner of lignite coal, delivering 35.5 million tons of lignite in 2003 NAC has 2.4 billion tons of lignite coal reserves, including unconsolidated project mines, of which 1.3 billion tons are committed to current customers Coal Grades
