The Trump administration is opening 13.1 million acres of federal land for leasing to coal miners and providing $625 million for power plants that burn the fuel as part of a broad initiative to help revive the flagging industry. The total area the administration is opening for leasing is six times larger than Yellowstone National Park and includes tracts in Montana, North Dakota, Wyoming, Utah and Alabama. Coal now accounts for about 15% of power generation in the US, down from more than half in 2000, according to the US Energy Information Administration. Shares of Peabody Energy Corp., the largest US coal miner, rose as much as 6.7% Monday. The Department of Energy announced it would be providing the $625 million to recommission or modernize coal plants and fund new coal projects.
