No new coal fired power plant has been built since Zimmer Power plant just east of Cincinnati on the Ohio River. That was opened in the mid-70's. Look it up.
Dominion power, Clover plant 1995,1996 431,435MW respectively
Prairie state energy campus commercial operation 2011 1600MW
Plant Scherer 1982-1990 3200MW total

At least do a little research before posting such nonsense
