Answer 2

Costs of using coal is a direct cost is (A) Cost to transport coal

Explanation:

1.It will pay nearly Rs 2360 crore a year towards Railway freight for transporting 23 million tonnes per annum (MTPA) of coal from the mine to its plants in Maharashtra.

2.If the existing rail lines have unused capacity, coal by rail is the cheapest method (up to 200 miles of additional track could be added). If no infrastructure exists, greater distances and larger amounts of energy favor coal by rail and gasified coal by pipeline over electricity transmission

3.Coal can be transported from mines and processing plants to consumers in several different ways: Conveyors, trams, and trucks move coal around mines, short distances from mines to consumers close to the mines, or to other modes of long-distance transportation
