For national security and economic reasons. All oil in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) should come from Coal. Every time the price of gas gets high there is debate about taping into the SPR. But want if the SPR ran out? What if there is another oil embargo or some other cut in the oil supply? If the oil came from clean coal we could just make more. We do not have to spend billions in research , they have been doing this is South Africa for many years. The Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) is a national security matter. One of the main goals of the SPR is a fuel supply for the military,ships,tanks and air craft. Do not think any of these will be using solar power anytime soon. They need a reliable oil source. This will also create real long lasting American jobs. God bless America.
