In the Name of Climate Change?

That's a smart observation on your part, and if you are genuinely looking for context and clarification, I'll elaborate.

The post above said that coal costs were amortized into the capital cost of the facility. Flat lie.

The poster complains about the maintenance of solar panels without specifying the cost of maintenance of a coal plant. The maintenance on a coal plant is easily 100 times that of a solar facility.

The poster uses 10yo data to distort the truth.

Poster makes no mention of the externalized costs of coal, such as asthma from pollution and climate change.

There is quite a bit of "data" like this floating around that ranges from defection to outright lies. This type "data" is being pushed by fossil fuel intetests.

We are in a world of global hurt because we have entertained nefarious "data" such as this for the last 40 yrs.

On this sub, we understand the real data and don't tolerate people coming here with evil intent.
