Yeah Europe has started to figure out the same thing. Have a grid composed of mostly renewables and shunning coal is pricey and not feasible. Here in AR we have a lot of hydroelectric, nuclear, and natural gas power plants and our electricity in my town that buys energy contracts is only 0.08749c/kWh on average from the last 12 billing cycles. Gas has pretty much sat at 2.150 for the last year. Also every kWh is the same price, no graduated billing system.
