Europe started using Russian gas in the 80's and has plenty of domestic coal reserves. As to infrastructure costs - it's something they would have had to eventually do in order to take advantage of far lower gas prices in the Americas, as well as reduce their exposure to disruptions due to Russian expansionism.
