He doesn’t have to propose anything, but can just describe what actually replaced coal in Berlin: gas, trash, and wind energy. Residential heating was converted to natural gas and “remote heat” with trash + gas power stations that circulate waste heat to surrounding neighborhoods. With sorting and smoke filters, these plants emit nothing but CO2 that poses no direct threat to those nearby. Plus, old coal plants turned into temples of hedonism like Berghain, producing rather different types of power and heat.
