So what is your actual complaint about the removal of coal from our electricity generation mix? Because your point seems to keep shifting.

My actual complaint is the removal of stable, relatively cheap, energy. That is being replaced by not stable, relatively expensive energy.
Or in the case of biomas, being hoodwinked into thinking that importing wood pellets from North America is any greener that using coal from the UK.
Anyway, I take your point, I'm drifting away from the topic and into general energy policy.
Needless to say, it's obvious what side of that debate I'm on.
