The Coal Cost Crossover 3.0

<p>New analysis finds 99 percent of existing U.S. coal plants are more expensive to run than replacement by local wind, solar, and energy storage resources. Transitioning to clean energy resources would save enough to finance nearly 150 gigawatts of four-hour battery storage, and would generate $589 billion in new investment across the U.S.</p>

How did renewables fare during Winter Storm Elliott? Better than natural gas and coal. - Louisiana Illuminator

The picture thatโ€™s emerged in the month since Winter Storm Elliott is one of inaccurate forecasting of how much electricity would be needed to weather large-scale fossil fuel plant failures and gas shortages
