They're dismantling the one that I worked at when I was in college. I was the third generation to work there. Grandpa was there the day it came online and dad was there to shutdown the last turbine.
It’s a damn shame what’s happening to our nation’s coal plants. Incredible feats of engineering performed in a time when hand calcs and hand drawings were the norm. I’ve done a lot of work at coal plants and I’ve always felt a special connection to them.

Never had that chance in the US, and the ones I got a chance to explore were made low-scale or mid-scale, the one midscale one was in operation since 1930. A lot of the stuff, especially the exposed stuff reminded me of steam train engines(there's another thing we should bring back). It all felt...alive. No better word for it.
Yup. Never forget that these libs pushed HARD to close down coal and natural gas plants.
Dude is SO based
Yep, our county’s coal plant is headed for decommissioning. You don’t just turn one of those on and off.
And given the dearth of unicorns of color..💁🏼♂️
