To convert coal into coke, the coal is burned in an oxygen-depleted environment. When this happens, the impurities of the coal are burnt up but the carbon remains. This is why coke is much lighter than coal.
Energy that is produced commercially from coal is called?
Thermal energy I suppose, but in most cases it is used for electricity. The steel industry uses coal (or coke rather) in blast furnaces.

Where coke fuel can be found?
Coke fuel is produced (in an industrial process) from coal which has been roasted in the absence of oxygen to drive off impurities consisting mostly of hydrocarbons and sulphur compounds. Coke fuel is almost pure carbon but will also contain trace amounts of ash, water and sulphur compounds.
What is the difference between Hard coking coal vs soft coking coal?
Coke is made by heating coal in the absence of oxygen to about 2000 degrees Fahrenheit. Hard coking coal forms high-strength coke, while soft coking coal produces a lesser quality coke.
