Not So FastTM is an awareness campaign aiming to inform the public, corporate leaders, and U.S. policymakers about the economic hurdles, technical challenges, and societal consequences of moving away too quickly from fossil-based natural resources, like coal, in favor of intermittent sources of energy like wind and solar power. The campaign considers the tradeoffs and timing of this transition in light of coal’s continuing contributions to our quality of life, energy security, the reliability of our electrical grid, and its key role in reducing global poverty. These benefits, along with coal’s use as an important raw material for applications and innovations extending well beyond electricity generation, are openly examined as we strive to move society forward.
CONSOL Energy is committed to meeting the nation's and world's energy demands by focusing on solutions that achieve energy security while finding ways to responsibly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
