Are there any downsides to having a coal deficiency if you've only used coal to build factories? - Drone view of aged abandoned coal mine with shabby buildings with red and gray roofs located in thick forest in summertime

Yesterday I was playing Civilization V and lost the city containing my sole coal source. I had built factories in my other cities prior to this and as such I now ended up with a deficiency in coal. Now, from what I understand, units requiring coal have their efficiency reduced if your coal supply no longer can keep up, but is there a such penalty with factories?

In other words, are there any downsides to having a coal deficiency if you've only spent your coal on factories in Civilization V?
