Useful insight, especially country-specific part, thanks for link. Coal is still too high, but maybe we should look at seasonal usage, not assume ‘operational’ = always on. For example in China, they might be keeping excess coal capacity for occasional use during extra-cold winters ?

Be aware, that when coal power plant is phased out, it might not necessarily mean that it was decommissioned - at least some of the installations are repurposed for natural gas or oil
