Is there a tracker of energy prices pre coal shut down and post coal shut down?

Predictions is that it'd go up, due to the unreliable nature of wind, solar. Hence the minimum price is the cost to turn on a power generator and fill in the gaps.



Coal was barely used, just one power station left. Variable liad is natural gas mostly, plus hydro, imports etc.
