Electric power is from coal power or hydro

Probably the embedded diesel generator. It's actuated with electric motor, but the electricity is produced in an embarked diesel power plant.

[@MrJetFormation]

​@Factao actually not exactly, most are directly next to a power plant and may even be owned by the power company. They literally have a giant extension cord running to them.
