Beyond Coal Washington
"Producing electricity for the average household in the U.S. each year requires burning 8,079 pounds of coal, and using 5,000 gallons of water. Just for your home." Mother Jones

Coal Free PSE
Coal is a dirty, dangerous and increasingly expensive fuel. In Washington, if you are a Puget Sound Energy (PSE) customer, you may be surprised that over one-third of your energy comes from coal. While PSE supports many clean energy programs, a large portion of the energy supplied by Puget Sound Energy comes from the biggest, most polluting coal-fired power plant in the West—the Colstrip Generating Facility in Eastern Montana.

Coal Free Avista
Take Action for a Coal Free Avista
Avista, the energy utility that serves Eastern Washington customers gets over 20% of its electricity from burning coal. Most of Avista’s coal-fired electricity is coming from the massive polluting power plant called Colstrip, located in Montana. Many here in Washington including myself were surprised to know that we still use a lot of coal power. Especially since Governor Inslee recently laid out his climate plan for Washington – and getting off coal is a high priority.
