    8.1GW of coal capacity expected to close in 2025 and the total capacity is about 180GW.

    It’s good but should be far faster given how clean and low cost alternatives are. All coal is expected to be closed by 2040 but it would be great to see that move forward to 2030.

    Paywalled, but I’m surprised their life isn’t being extended to support the power-hungry data centers.
