Building new solar and wind is now often lower cost than operating many existing coal plants.
"It was a better plan for us to move forward with the closure of the [coal units] from the economics for our customers than it was to continue operating these plants...What we expect is that going forward, this is going to continue saving our customers money." -Alice Jackson, President Xcel Energy, Colorado
"I was stunned. A [new] solar plant ends up being the best part of our mix. I was surprised. That's why you do the studies. Data is an amazing thing." -General Manager Midwestern municipal utility
