There is an excellent heating fuel comparison calculator at:

It's an Excel spreadsheet that allows you to compare all heating fuels, coal, natural gas, propane, oil, wood, heat pumps etc. You customize your fuel cost and equipment efficiency to your situation.

Be sure to look at the other sheets of the spreadsheet, it has instructions and definitions of the various terms. Even has a geography input. Very complete.

Even the most expensive coal (PA antracite) will be half the cost of any other purchased fuel. The more widely available bituminus is cheaper still.))
