The IEA says[1]:
> For all energy sources, the IEA clearly defines energy production at the point where the energy source becomes a “marketable product” (and not before).
Doesn't that mean if you are burning coal to make electricity, you wouldn't count the heat output because the generated heat is not a marketable product.

I interpret "marketable product" to mean gas at the wellhead, coal at the mine terminal.
