Coal Power 28 Percent More Expensive In 2024 Than In 2021 • Energy Innovation Coal's already poor economics have gotten worse over the last four years, with costs at the majority of plants rising faster than inflation.

Tri-state says they're expecting to receive an order to keep the Craig coal plant in northern CO open... but our analysis shows that Craig got 67% more expensive from 2021 to 2024, more than FOUR times the rate of inflation in the same time period. Rural Colorado deserves better.

Don’t let Trump’s fake 'energy emergency' harm Coloradans | Colorado Newsline We think Coloradans deserve the right to decide how we power our homes, protect our kids from dirty air, and avoid surging energy bills.

There are a lot of solutions to meeting growing electricity demand, but the Comanche coal plant, which may be offline through June 2026 after damage experienced this past August, is definitely not one of them. @silviomarcacci.bsky.social and I explain coloradonewsline.com/2025/10/28/t...

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act is actually One Big Expensive Bill that, if passed as is, will do major damage to the U.S. economy, harm workers and families, and put the U.S. in the backseat when it comes to global competitiveness. The team at @energyinnovation.org modeled it, here's what we found:

A huge energy story is unfolding in Pueblo, CO - with big implications for our state's grid, climate goals, and energy costs.

An "energy park" could help Colorado replace coal and lead US innovation. Me with @michelle-solomon.bsky.social

Thanks a million to @ricoconnell.bsky.social @wilsonar.bsky.social and Julia Matevosyan for joining @sarabaldwin.bsky.social and me for a discussion on grid reliability in the clean energy transition today!! Check out the conversation here

5 Things to Know About Clean Energy and a Reliable Grid How states are successfully navigating the clean energy transition

My first post for @energyinnovation.org's new substack, The Powerline! Clean energy IS reliable, and we love to see it!

Had a great time chatting with Bill Loveless about meeting load growth with clean energy!

@sarabaldwin.bsky.social and I cover the basics of grid reliability and how clean energy can contribute to a reliable grid in a new report, which comes with a handy summary of key takeaways and policy recommendations. check it out here!
