Canada Coal Industry: Porter’s Five Forces Analysis
Taiyou Research, Dec 2011, Pages: 30
Coal is a commonly used fossil fuel worldwide today. Both developed as well as emerging nations rely heavily on coal to meet their country’s energy requirements on a day to day basis. While there are many options such as renewable energy available, the low cost of coal and ready availability of coal makes it an attractive option for power generation. There are not many players in the Canadian coal market and it is a highly competitive market. Globally, the coal industry is growing at a fast pace, in spite of the various environmental concerns that faces the future of the industry, and Canada is one of the leading producers and consumers of coal in the world. The Canadian government has put in place stringent environmental regulations that impact the coal industry, and it remains to be seen how these regulations affect the growth of the Canadian coal industry in the coming years.
In order to understand the profitability and the dynamics of competitive structure of the coal industry in Canada, Taiyou Research presents a Porter's Five Forces Analysis of the Canadian Coal Industry.

The model analyzes the bargaining power of buyers and suppliers; the competitive rivalry in the industry; the threat of new entrants and the threat of substitutes for the particular industry – in this case, coal faces the threat of substitution from the various renewable energy sources that are fast becoming popular today.
In our report, apart from the Porter’s Five Forces Model Analysis of the industry, Taiyou Research also analyze the basics of coal, including the various uses and types of coal, how coal is formed, and many other factors impacting the global coal industry.
