Why are there less plants using coal? Because natural gas is cheaper.
Why is natural gas cheaper? Because it is a byproduct of fracing for oil.
What will happen as more EV's on the road? Less oil is needed.
What happens when less oil is being freced? Less natural gas being produced causing prices to increase.
What happens when the price of natural gas cost more than coal? Power plants will start using coal again.
Its all connected.
The day you can turn the wind on when needed let's talk.
The day you start to know that there is such thing as high capacity energy storage batteries that’s able to power up an entire city in Australia based on Tesla technology, then we’ll know that we’ll be starting on the same knowledge base and the conversation will not be a ware of time.
Oh yeah, I heard that before, that watching TV will stop when the wind die down. Let me recall who.
