The utilities always follow the practice of retiring fossil fuel electric generating plants at the end of their original lifetimes

What will be an ideal response?


Not so. In many cases, new technology can be installed that allows more years of
service for those plants. This has led to attempts to keep these generators in service without
installing new pollution control equipment, as described on page 239.
