China Delays About 200 Coal-Fired Stations

As an addendum to my post about renewables getting cheaper, I see that China has announced it is postponing or potentially abandoning plans for about 200 coal-fired power plants. Now, obviously this has probably more to do with the sagging Chinese economy than any environmental concerns.  But it is positive nonetheless, because the longer those plants are delayed, the cheaper wind and solar alternatives will become. And, when (and if) the Chinese economy has resurgence and power demands increase, those renewables may actually be the cheaper alternative.
