•U.S. coal-fired generating capacity retirements in 2025 reached a 15-year low, with only 2.6 GW retired, significantly less than the 8.5 GW initially planned.
•Approximately 4.8 GW of planned coal retirements were delayed, indicating a potential shift in grid reliability priorities or economic factors influencing plant operations.
•For developers, this slowdown means fewer immediate 'replacement' opportunities for new generation projects (e.g., solar, wind, storage, CCGT) tied to coal plant closures.
