From the 27/4 trading statement, the Govt asked Drax to plan to keep the coal burning, so there is some thinking going on in the Dept of Energy.
"Drax continues to expect to formally close these two legacy coal units following the fulfilment of their Capacity Market obligations in September 2022 but remains committed to supporting security of supply in the UK. Drax has recently been asked by the UK Government to consider options for a limited extension of its coal operations and this remains under review.
