Are you in Europe? Wtf Isn't it a EU wide goal to phase coal out by 2030 or something?
Is it? Coal is rampant in Eastern Europe.
I think Romania is the only outlier, and that's only because their former dictator forced them to build hydro and nuclear (ironically).
In Portugal the last coal plant closed maybe a year or so ago. Apparently some countries will take longer but, here's a link https://beyondfossilfuels.org/europes-coal-exit/
But yeah, Poland, turkey and some balkans don't have much planned...
