It is not "worn out". You're just making that up. Nothing anywhere says the plant is too old to keep running. Read the article.

The Navajo complex proved no match against market forces. The shale boom unleashed record volumes of low-cost natural gas, undermining the economics of coal generators across the U.S. Cheaper and cleaner wind and solar farms also began squeezing the plant's profits.

Coal, which once supplied more electricity in the U.S. than any other resource, now accounts for less than a quarter of the nation's mix. Since 2010, power generators have announced the retirement of more than 500 coal-fired power plants with more than 100 gigawatts of capacity, according to government data.
