Check out the map.

The Eastern half of the US is going to be devastated. Zoom in on individual states to see locations better. Click on the blue pointers to see info. The column on the left gives more details.

With all these plants closing, what do we do for electrical energy? The remaining plants can’t possibly handle the load and I don’t see large numbers of “clean” plants under construction.

This is something Romney should start pounding on. Bring out the charts in each state and show people what obama has planned for them.

This is just another spike in our coffin if allowed to continue. The obama master plan marches on.

We will generate power with clean, nonfracked natural gas

I just looked at your map and it is scary to see AEP plants to be closed. I know people who worked at those plants!

I retired from an AEP coal plant a few years back. They use low sulfur Wyoming coal and the plant is extremely clean.

The EPA is now requiring them to install scrubbers to remove that miniscule amount of sulfur left, and install a bag house.

The problem is, the Public Service Commission will not allow them to pass along the cost of building the EPA mandated scrubbers. So the plant may be shut down and abandoned.

Thanks for the EPA closing plant link - I’m spreading it around.

I’ve driven by the New Castle plant a lot when I go to Hermitage from time to time. This plan has to stop and the EPA defunded and told to go something that is biologically impossible.
