Increased solar and wind means little in terms of saving the planet when coal usage is increasing. I look forward to the day when we have some honest data from CN on electricitymaps
I agree with your point on curbing fuel import and dependence.
Got any stats on coal increasing to share ? Last I saw they were decomming significant quantities of coal stations
Sure. Had a check on these organisations and they seem reliable.
