You may have misjudged the comment thread. You should realize I'm excited about this plant serving 14% of Finland energy: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30653980 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30653980 I think you should read the thread and context of the reply again. Just to make the misunderstanding clear: Any *green energy* that takes us out of coal/peat/oil is progress. You don't have to repeat as if there is a conspiracy. I was replying to a comment asking for comparison with other sources, saying that *progress to green energy is way more important* than comparisons against brown energy, no matter even if said comparisons paint coal/peat/oil in favourable or unfavorable terms. It's exactly the same you said, burning peat doesn't make sense today no matter the cost, and that's exactly the same I'm saying.
