Don’t Be Fooled: Gas Cuts Emissions Nearly 13:1 Compared to Solar/Wind

K.J. Rodgers writes to Maryland Public Service Commission noting conversions of coal power plants to gas have reduced emissions 13 to 1 versus renewables. 

The Charles P. Crane Generating Station, a 400 megawatt coal power plant located in Bowleys Quarters, Maryland, 14 miles east of Baltimore was closed in June of last year and is proposed for conversion to a a natural gas-fired peaker plant.
