Lower natural gas prices are also working against coal, as many are opting for natural gas as an alternative. Tougher environmental laws are also having an effect on coal consumption, as several coal-fired power plants have been shut down due to the costly upgrades needed to stay in compliance.
The aforementioned reasons are certainly creating challenges for the industry and companies like Arch Coal Inc. and CONSOL Energy Inc. However, those with diversified holdings are still performing well. CONSOL is a good example of this, recently announcing that its Gas Division upped its 2nd quarter production by 10% in year over year comparisons.
