With less than nine weeks remaining in 2024, Wyoming’s coal mines need to produce 40 million tons of coal to keep the run of 200-million-ton production years alive, said Rob Godby, an energy economist and University of Wyoming associate professor.
“To hit 200 million tons, you’d need another 40 million tons mined in nine weeks, and that ninth week is always a partial week,” he told Cowboy State Daily.
That’s an average of about 5 million tons a week, which Wyoming’s mines haven’t hit for any week so far this year, he said.
