A coal power plant is rougly the same cost per GW as solar or wind, doesn’t mean we should build more of them.
I agree it’s expensive, but so were solar and wind a couple decades ago. Government investment helped research, development, scaling up - imagine if that had been done in the '80s, we wouldn’t be building natural gas plants right now.
