Elbistan coalfield, also known as Afà Âin Elbistan Lignite Reserve, is a large lignite coalfield in Kahramanmaraà  Province in the south-east of Turkey. Elbistan is the field with the most coal in Turkey. Former ÃÂöllolar coal mine also supplied a local power station, but after that closed, Kñà Âlaköy was the only mine. 200 million tons of CO<sub>2</sub> were emitted by burning lignite from this field before 2016. The lignite is high in sulfur and moisture, and the energy value of this coal is only 1,000 to 1,500 kcal/kg, or less than 5 MJ/kg, which is a quarter of typical thermal coal. The coalfield supplies the Afà Âin-Elbistan power stations.
