Coal is portable, so once it is dug up and processed we can send it almost anywhere. The others are rather geographically dependant. Solar energy is fairly well available to most populations, because we tend to live in fairly temperate areas (though the people who live close to the poles don't have much of it available). Tidal energy is not easily available to those in the center of a large continent, but if you live on an ocean or sea coast it is hard to get away from. Similarly, wind energy is almost everywhere, though strong consistent wind that large energy companies like is fairly limited, but quite reasonable as a supplement to many individuals.
