A generator produces electricity for electrical appliances, such as toasters, blenders, and TV sets.
Coal provides power for, among other things, electrical generators.

it produces electricity
A generator is a backwards electric motor. You put work into a generator--turning it with steam, water, wind, or a car engine, and each time it spins it sends an exact amount of electricity through its connecting wires to an electric motor on the other end. There the process is reversed, and the electricity makes work come out of the motor. It's just a way to move work from one place to another conveniently (except what you lose by friction).
It would be possible to change some wires and put work into the motor and have work come out of the generator.
The reason motors and generators work is that there is a cause-and-effect relationship between electrical fields and magnets. Moving one will cause the other to move.
