True, I was making the point in answer to a previous post that there was currently a significant amount of electricity being generated in the UK using coal.

However the important word in the link ref closure of coal fired power stations is "considering", nowhere near a done deal yet! With successive governments of either party being very poor at long term energy planning and execution their life will probably extend well after the projected date for closure.
