US Government Considers Emergency Measures to Revive Closed Coal Plants

Reported about 13 hours ago

The US is contemplating emergency measures to reopen closed coal-fired power plants and prevent further shutdowns, according to Interior Secretary Doug Burgum. He argues that such actions are necessary due to Biden-era policies threatening the power grid. Since 2000, over 770 coal units have retired amid competition from cheaper energy sources, and Burgum insists that safer alternatives should be available despite opposition from environmental groups, who claim these plants are costly and polluting.
