I know Germany wants their coal fire plants back. They are not able to produce enough energy with the wind mills and solar panels due to the bad winter. Germany is having power shortages.
Don’t know but apparently they need a few more in Germany just at the moment.
This is nonsensical - the US has over 200 coal fired power plants.
wow, 3 of the are right here in colorado
Three of them here in Kentucky are being sunsetted. They are actually concerned about where we are going to get the power to replace them.
Must be a typo. US has more than 15
Can you source this?
Not enough. 😕🏭🔋📴🔛
Nope
“USA has 15 - building 0 more...Total = 15”
If your friend is going to pull peoples legs, at least make it believable.
China is not about to commit economic suicide. They realize that without reliable, cheap electricity there is poverty, social and political instability. BTW Australia is getting rich selling China all the coal it can produce. Meanwhile in demented, corrupt Biden’s America.....
There is this to be concerned about - about 40% of our electricity comes from natural gas plants. These are relatively inexpensive to operate. Keep in mind that much of our natural gas comes from fracking and fracking is a target of the GND fanatics. If ‘Slo-Jo and The Ho’ are able to ban fracking, expect your power bill to rise by several orders of magnitude.
Not too sure I trust your numbers, but anecdotally America is shutting down coal plants in favor of ..... NOTHING.
I really don’t care if Democrats want to destroy their society to save an Earth everybody else gets to destroy.
I just don’t want to stay on that ship with them.
Let them sink. Take care of you and your people and get away from Democrats.
When your enemy is committing suicide stand aside and watch.
Full disclosure; I have 10.6 kW of new solar panels ready to install, I live in very rural Hawaii, so I will have power for my needs.
btt
Why doesn’t the press ask the question, “where is our electricity going to come from?” of the President. Why doesn’t anyone in DC seem to care about real, concrete issues like keeping the lights and heat on in this country. ?
I think France gets close to 80% of their power via nuclear generation.
We should be building GenIV nuke plants.
Shut those plants down now and replace them with acres and acres of wind turbines with solar panels on the vanes.
