[QUOTE="Lucky, post: 1485215, member: 32659"] If you have ever walked through a combined cycle power plant it’s not hard to see why coal fired plants aren’t profitable anymore. A 1500 MW plant can be ran easily with 20-30 shift folks and 5-6 admin people. Maybe need a big forklift and a pick up to move things. Coal plants have a ton of equipment and people to deal with. I bet the weekly fuel bill at a coal plant will pay a gas plants salary for a year. From what I can gather the reclaimed land is excellent for running cattle if you can get your hands on it. [/QUOTE]
