Capacity?

Not sure I linked "capacity" correctly - or if should be to Declared net capacity Chidgk1 (talk) 14:53, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

Nameplate was correct. Reywas92Talk 18:41, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

Suggestions re numbers

Listing capacity to the nearest MW and capacity factor to the nearest % might be more readable.

If the numbers are right justified they might be more readable.

Should the lead be an excerpt?

I guess it would be good to expand the lead. But in order to avoid duplication I wonder if it should simply be an excerpt of Coal power in the United States? Chidgk1 (talk) 06:47, 13 September 2020 (UTC)

CO2 emissions mistakes?

When I sort by CO2 some small capacity plants come near the top - is there a mistake? Chidgk1 (talk) 06:01, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

Kind of, it starts with the largest under 1,000,000 first going all the way down to zero and then goes to the actual largest values and goes all the way down to 1,000,000. There is no error in the data, however I do not know why it is sorting wrong or how to fix it. User:OrangeRye 12:45, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

The same problem happens when sorting by annual generation. User:OrangeRye 17:48, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

The problem is caused by the commas. I don't know if there is a way to keep the commas and have it sort correctly. User:OrangeRye 19:40, 21 February 2021 (UTC)

I suggest the column should be in kilotonnes with no commas - there is no way they are accurate to nearest tonne Chidgk1 (talk) 14:37, 7 July 2021 (UTC)
