Coal mine-to-solar conversions are already happening in some countries, most notably China, which leads the world in solar uptake AFP Disused coal mines could be refashioned to place vast fields of solar panels, a new report suggests, providing an unlikely solution to a common obstacle to uptake of the green energy source. Hundreds of decommissioned surface coal mines worldwide offer an alternative to tracts of land that might be needed for food or housing, according to Global Energy Monitor (GEM), an non-governmental organisation focused on fossil fuel and renewable energy projects. Abandoned coal mines are on land that has already been cleared, and tend to be near electrical grids, making them ideal for feeding in renewable energy.
