Coal is the world’s biggest source of electricity production.

The world's biggest source of electricity production is Coal. Coal is a fossil fuel that is mined from the ground and is the largest source of energy for the generation of electricity worldwide. Coal is burned to produce heat, which is then used to boil water and produce steam. The steam drives turbines that generate electricity.

There are other sources of electricity as well, such as natural gas, nuclear energy, hydroelectric power, and renewable energy sources like wind and solar power.

However, coal is the largest source of electricity production in the world.
