All I see? Is stranded assets. Coal has been losing out to LNG for decades. Its now almost 3 times the cost per Kwh to make power from coal than it is from LNG. And now renewable plus storage is cheaper than either of them.

Metallurgical coal will always be needed. As for storage, storing electricity on a megawatt level is not like a flashlight battery. It is prohibitively expensive. That is why is is not being done. Utilities would not let the electricity go to waste if it was affordable.

@@larrypatty8333 Incorrect sir, we already have two ways of making steel without coal all together. Both of which are substantially cheaper and produce far higher quality steel and steel alloys. Secondly Storage is NOT expensive at all anymore, compared to the long term costs of a peaker plant its peanuts. You never have to buy fuel for batteries and you don't need anyone to over see them either. And as to not being done? Globally over 80 GWh of storage was added last year. And that number is 3x the previous year.
@larrypatty8333 Жыл бұрын
@@davefroman4700 And the primary method of making steel without coal is the electric arc furnace method, which uses natural gas. Between coal and natural gas they account for 90% of all steel produced. As for power storage, where is that being done at this time? 94% of US storage is pumped hydro according the the EPA. Only 733 mw of US energy are batteries.

2:48 to 4:46 How does this small screening operation relate to loading a coal train? What this segment shows is the prep of the coal to load a pick-up truck. Why do you have this segment in your video?

Great video. Thanx for the captions explaining what is going on. This video has been suggested by YT for a couple of weeks on my "A" channel, but that channel isn't about railfanning. I finally looked up your channel from this "B" channel to find this video. I also found Norfolk Southern Coal Train Loading Out at Tom's Creek Mine from 09 Oct 15 kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHbOhWCihJ6qf80 That is a really good video also. I'll check out more as I have time.
