Do you have ongoing guaranteed yeld for coal plants? That's insane. Is it some old contract that is about to expire?

Anyway, I wonder how the grid will cope after the lion-share of the generation is done by synchronized inverters, instead of high-inertia rotational generators. I am concerned we move too fast and make our grids instable worldwide, with generators amplifying deviations instead of absorbing them.

No, that is referring to capital investment in the distribution assets, not generation.
