Not really obsolete. 50% of german energy comes from coal and 50% of that comes from lignite. And Germany has been building renewables like mad for the past decade and only get 25% of their energy from that. Cost isn't the issue here but time to deployment.

Biggest issue is not the production, but the lines. For political reasons the big north-south power lines are not being built. Everyone is afraid of the grid.
