The president of the West Virginia Coal Association, Chris Hamilton, shared the struggles the industry has faced due to President Biden's green energy push.

Power outages are"likely to occur if we continue down this path of shutting down these plants," Hamilton said.

Coal is used to generate nearly 22% of the nation's power in 2021, while all fossil fuels account for about 61%, The White House'shas put the"electric grid and the reliability of household and industrial power at such risks," Hamilton said."We're going into the winter months now and our fleet of renewable, intermittent windmills and solar panels are not going to be able to pick up the load.

Biden pledges to reduce carbon emissions in half by 2030, moving away from fossil fuels towards a wind and solar-powered generation.
