This region is known for its low-sulfur coal, which is highly valued for electricity generation due to its cleaner-burning properties compared to higher-sulfur coal. Despite the decline in coal use across the nation, Wyoming's vast coal reserves continue to play a major role in the energy sector, supplying both domestic and international markets.
