Headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, and founded in 1883, Peabody Energy Corporation operates as a prominent global entity in the coal mining sector. Its vast operations encompass the United States, Australia, Japan, India, China, and several other countries across Asia and beyond. The company organizes its extensive activities into key divisions: Seaborne Thermal Mining, Seaborne Metallurgical Mining, Powder River Basin Mining, and other U.S. Thermal Mining segments. Peabody's core business involves the extraction, processing, and sale of various types of coal. This includes thermal coal, primarily supplied to electricity generation facilities, as well as bituminous and sub-bituminous coal. Additionally, it mines a range of metallurgical coals, such as hard, semi-hard, and semi-soft coking coal, alongside pulverized coal injection (PCI) coal, which it delivers to industrial clients and steel manufacturers. As of the end of 2021, the corporation maintained interests in 17 coal mining sites situated in both the U.S. and Australia, possessing approximately 2.5 billion tons of validated and likely coal reserves. It also managed around 450,000 acres of surface land through a combination of ownership and lease agreements. Beyond its mining endeavors, Peabody also facilitates direct and brokered trading of coal and related freight contracts, and furnishes transportation services.
