Coal Is On The Way Out — Natural Gas Is Next
We are not talking about some day in the future here. Renewables are pushing gas out already.

CleanChoice Energy, in partnership with CleanTechnica, has created a “Clean Energy 101” explainer that makes it easy to understand renewable energy and clean energy, and their benefits over fossil fuels.

Solar and wind power are absolutely predictable when it comes to variable costs. By contrast, coal and gas power are altogether too variable to be reliable.
The natural gas industry is growing seemingly by leaps and bounds, and yet a number of people believe it is clear that something is very wrong with it.
I’ve been asked a lot of questions about Minnesota’s community solar program over the past couple years and it’s time to make one thing clear: Minnesota’s program is the best in the country.
Why? Because there 10 times more community solar projects in the queue — 400 megawatts — in Minnesota than have been built in the history of community solar in the United States (40 megawatts).
SB 100, a bill now pending in the California legislature, would transition California to 100% zero-carbon, effectively all renewable, electricity by 2045. Our studies provide a way to do this for all energy sectors (electricity, transportation, heating/cooling, and industry). Robert Bryce, a Senior Fellow of the Manhattan Institute, a think tank that has been well funded by Koch Industries and ExxonMobil, incorrectly wrote in the Los Angeles Times on August 21, 2018, that transitioning California entirely to renewable energy would “wreck vast onshore and offshore territories with forests of wind turbines and sprawling solar projects.”
Arcadia Power, a technology company based out of D.C., has built the first-ever nationwide digital utility so that you can also tap into savings in the energy market while supporting clean energy. Customers can use their completely free digital platform to reduce your carbon footprint and save you money along the way.
Wunder finances small and midsize business’ solar energy projects (from about $100k to $5M), which community and traditional banking institutions avoid because of the complexity. Not only is this moving the needle when it comes to the commercial solar market, it’s proving to be a very successful model, and it has seen huge growth and impact over the past year.
Since it is being backed by oil industry lobbyists, one might ask, could a carbon tax actually be a benefit for the oil industry in some way? It is a question worth asking.
