Another large coal generating plant to close in the UK. Eggborough near Selby in Yorkshire will close September 2018 after losing out in a capacity auction. They are mainly losing to gas generating plant although some battery back-up get contracts for first time.
The closure of Eggborough will leave the UK with just seven coal-fired power plants: Drax, Cottam, West Burton, Fiddlers Ferry, Aberthaw, Uskmouth, and Ratcliffe-on-Soar.
