What does a coal plant cost? At least, one that generates as much electricity as these solar installations collectively do? And what of the cost of fueling and operations over, say, 20 years?

A hell of a lot less. Fueling over 20 years? In America? Don't make me laugh...coal is dirt cheap compared to ANY other energy-generating method. Look at $/MMBTU comparisons published by EIA every week.

Sheesh.
