The UK Makes History as the First Major Nation to Quit Coal | Firstpost America

Britain has officially closed its last coal-burning power plant, marking a historic shift in energy production. The Ratcliffe-on-Soar facility, which operated for over 50 years, symbolises the end of an era for a nation that once relied heavily on coal to fuel its industrial revolution. As the UK embraces renewable energy, now accounting for over 40% of its electricity generation, it sets an example for the world in combating climate change. While the closure brings hope for a cleaner future, challenges remain, as countries like China and India continue to rely on coal to meet their growing energy demands. Watch this video to know more.
