So the net zero loons are continuing their destruction in Alberta. The first of the last 3 coal generators (all at the Genessee plant SW of Edmonton) is being converted to NG. These are the newest and best coal fired units running with the latest commissioned in 2005. The promise is no more coal by 2023 so get ready for much higher heating costs and rolling blackouts next winter. With utilities competing with home heat we will see costs for both power and gas rising a lot. I have an 8.49cents/KWh contract through the REA until Dec 31 and was looking to lock in for 23 but nothing available yet. On an REA here. Have a generator but getting it started when it is -30 would be a challenge. I have written to my UCP MLA about this but you never get a response from her about anything. Are the coal plants in SK safe? Poor cattle guys will need to convert all their waterers to those propane fired ones for next winter or burn wood.

Why is coal better than natural gas?Comment

Just wondering if the govt makes the same amount of carbon tax between coal and nat gas for each kilowatt produced. Natural gas has a high carbon tax on itOriginally posted by ALBERTAFARMER4 View PostComment
