Engagement 900+
Before the final Shut Down in March 2016
Longannet Power Station on the Upper Forth in the east of Scotland , with the snow-covered Ochil Hills in the background , where the frost failed to lift all day. The Longannet chimney now takes the accolade of being the tallest free-standing structure in Scotland after the Inverkip Power Station stack was demolished on 28th July 2013.
POWER STATION DEMOLITION
Longannet coal-fired operations finally ended for the last time on Thursday 24/3/16 four years early and the main power generation Hall was demolished by explosives in Feb 2021. The towering chimney was brought down by detonation on 9/12/21
