WTF???? Did Hillary write this, no mention of coal or nuclear in the least. I guess we’re going to continue the policies of the Obama administration. It’s been said more coal power plant generation closed in 2018 than all of Obama’s first term and most of the coal is now being exported to China. Is that winning?

https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=44155 Almost all U.S. coal production is consumed for electric power.

https://www.eia.gov/outlooks/aeo/ Of particular interest is the Electricity mix chart showing the current 19% renewables, 37% natural gas, 19% nuclear, and 24% coal. In the next 30 years nuclear is to decline to 12% and 13% for coal. Currently nuclear produces nearly 20% of the power in the USA and 12% in Ohio.

A correction to my previous comment. The 12% in Ohio number is supplied by the two nuclear power plants that their trying to get rid of. Can someone say superfund cleanup.
