Today, the EPA refused to permit the $3 BILLION Texas coal plant which was to be the most modern and clean coal plant in the world. 4,500 jobs. They plan on closing 205 additional plants in the next 4 years. Coal is going gangbusters world wide for power production, but has just fallen behind natural gas in the US (due to the miracle of fracking). The US CO2 emissions are the lowest of the last 21 year. (not that it matters as the world's are up.) The only factor driving solar is governmental mandates. When these fail as people get tired of paying triple for their energy, they will also fail. No energy source capable of at least breaking even with their competition will survive.
