Please name them so I can verify...not that I don’t trust you of course. Most of the coal plants being shut down are being converted to natural gas,

To remain competitive and increase efficiency, many coal-fired operations are switching plants to natural gas. Between 2011 and 2019, 103 coal-fired plants were converted to, or replaced by, natural gas-fired plants. The U.S. Energy Information Administration predicts coal to gas conversions will continue.Mar 16, 2021
