the state of Coal: a us / global comparison
Coal has been dethroned in the US; natural gas has surpassed coal as the leading source of electricity in the US for the first time in more than half a century.
However, coal can anticipate a stable global future; there are 1,600 coal plants under construction in 62 countries.
- The Energy Institute at the University of Texas, Austin, has released its annual update of its Full Cost of Electricity (FCe) report. AES is pleased to provide background on and access to the UT-Austin report.
- Lazard has released its annual "Levelized Cost of Energy" and the "Levelized Cost of Storage 2018" reports. (AES is pleased to provide access to the LCOE and LCOS publications.) Highlights: a continued decline in the cost of generating electricity from alternative energy technologies, especially utility-scale solar and wind. In some scenarios, alternative energy costs have decreased to the point that they are now at or below the marginal cost of conventional generation.
