Mostly because the US has huge coal deposits but fairly limited coal exports. A lot of the discussion about LNG is whether it makes sense to use it to displace same-country coal extraction & use vs ship in LNG from far away.
Great, thanks! Why doesn’t the chart show costs of transportation of coal via ship as well? Do you have a link for the study mentioned in the graph by chance?
It doesn’t show those because the US isn’t about to start large-scale coal exports.
