As of 2020, the USA generated just under 20% of its electricity from coal. https://www.eia.gov/tools/faqs/faq.php?id=427&t=3

Lighting for residences is not such a big deal but it is a large chunk of commercial electrical consumption.

CFL should have been in wide-scale use decades ago. It arrived far too late. Today, LED is massively more efficient as well as more durable and longer lasting.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
