Chinese researchers converting coal directly into electricity by an electrochemical process. Needs many more years for development. The problem is it’s still a finite resource being used up. And there is still the waste left over. Solar and wind are infinite and free. https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid028ZMxJRtnzemcj46uq9d4umqztWpJDeWnuGLhaSo2dcE1erQqvW4xeRK1UZyYxsfJl&id=100064453789721&post_id=100064453789721_pfbid028ZMxJRtnzemcj46uq9d4umqztWpJDeWnuGLhaSo2dcE1erQqvW4xeRK1UZyYxsfJl&mibextid=NOb6eG
