To Peabody Energy it's a coal-cooled world. The world's largest private-sector coal producer, Peabody operates more than 30 mines and processing facilities in the US and Australia. It sells about 250 million tons of coal annually and maintains more than 9 billion tons in reserve. US customers, primarily power companies, account for nearly 85% of Peabody's sales. Its operations include coal trading and brokering, coalbed methane production, transportation-related services, and development of coal-based generating plants. Peabody was founded in 1883 as a coal supplier but began coal mining in earnest in 1926.
