I predicted 5-7 for HailState
It’s successful because it forced a change - was never a fan of how they hired Arnett

Not typically public information because it depends on each utilities risk tolerance and/or any PSC reliability requirements
30-60 days is a good rule of thumb
It really depends on how how far the coal is from the generation plant, rail line performance and type of coal you burn - is it sub-bituminous (PRB), which is 8400-8800 btu/lb or bituminous (IB) 11500-12000 btu/lb
If sub bituminous and I’m in the southeast, I may want a larger inventory because 1. Distance (PRB - coming from Wyoming) 2. Heat content lower than bituminous, so I have to burn more to get the equivalent MWh 3. If it is delivered by multiple railroads, that could push me there as well

know coal for power generation is delivered by rail, Does anyone know how many days of supply those plants typically keep on hand? Can they run a week or a month without the trains delivering more coal?
Lol I’ll just say coal stockpiles are at critical levels and there are coal units on curtailment due to lack of coal supply deliveries
When the pandemic hit, the railroads furloughed and laid off way too many workers - some decided to retired some found other employment
Let’s just say their recruiting and retaining of new employees is subpar-if they hire 100 - when all the training is complete, they may have kept 20-30 new hires

Going to get worse come Friday when railroads strike - they’ve been sitting railcars in preparation for the strike
