"What the study finds is that the cheap natural gas and natural gas turbines, along with flat electricity demand, have been the prime cause of coal-fired power plant retirements. ... The study [also] found that renewable generation, such as wind and solar, added flexibility to the electric grid and did not pose a reliability issue. ... But then the report works hard to find a place for coal and nuclear generation in the future, both of which are struggling."

Behold the grotesque hand of Trumpian politics in science-based and fact-based decision making.

Fortunately the economy as a whole and firms individually know Trump baloney when they see it and will continue to do what is best for them, not what best supports baseless Trump promises.
