Bio coal opportunity

some are not aware of how central coal is to the world as a primary source of electricity generation

What is U.S. electricity generation by energy source?

In 2013, the United States generated about 4,058 billion kilowatthours of electricity. About 67% of the electricity generated was from fossil fuel (coal, natural gas, and petroleum), with 39% attributed from coal.

In 2013, energy sources and percent share of total electricity generation were

Coal 39%
Natural Gas 27%
Nuclear 19%
Hydropower 7%
Other Renewable 6%
Biomass 1.48%
Geothermal 0.41%
Solar 0.23%
Wind 4.13%
Petroleum 1%
Other Gases < 1%

The continued push for clear coal will undoubtedly offer up an opportunity for a coal mix to include in burn feed

In his CC Mr Gaspard directly addressed this as a key focus. It is also the end market for the announced order to Vega Bio Fuel

The issue isn't IF it could work...it is how fast to have a reliable source and production means for the massive amounts they could use.
