A view from near Cottam towards West Burton as the sun begins to set. From this distance, the true size and scale of the station is hard to grasp.
For winter, taken a little while back now, but no doubt we will have this to look forward to again before long.

Last days of coal and oil-fired power generation before Didcot A Power Station closes. Gas-powered Didcot B continues, but does not use the cooling towers. No more steam!
Stony Creek Wind Farm near Shanksville, Pennsylvania (6-23-2021). I delivered a main shaft and returned the old shaft to South Dakota for refurbishment. This was the first time in years I'd been in this region, for I am rarely so far east of the Mississippi River.
The images below in the comments show the old main shaft on the trailer ready to return to Sioux Falls, SD, as well as the crane that is mounted atop the nacelle that lifts and lowers all the pieces. A special fixture is mounted to the new main shaft (the yellow part), then it is raised to the face of the nacelle facing the opposite direction, the fixture is then bolted to the old shaft in order to pull it out, then both new and old are turned 180 degrees to install the new shaft before lowering the old to the ground.
Colt supplied and installed a smoke control system with natural ventilation to the Energy from Waste power generation facility based in Moerdijk which provides more than 200,000 households with sustainable energy.

Situated on the banks of Lake Herrington, the Brown Plant is unique in that it showcases three generations of electricity-producing processes.
The hydro plant, the forefather of today's units, when built was expected to supply electricity to KU's service area well into the 21st century. Today, however, the primary source of Brown's power is the three fossil-fueled generating units and the newest addition to the site, six combustion turbines.
Built in the 1920s, the Dix Dam Hydro Plant was a showplace filled with goldfish and flowers and hailed as the world's largest stone-filled dam. Originally a principal source of power, the hydro plant is now used mainly when heavy rainfall results in above normal lake elevation. The plant produces 24 megawatts of power with all three units on.
The second source of electricity generated at the Brown Plant is the conventional fossil fuel units. Three generators can produce 700 megawatts of electricity, more than one-fifth of KU's total capacity. An average of 1.5 million tons of coal is burned annually at Brown Station.
The newest addition to the Brown Plant is the combustion turbine generating facility. Currently, six turbine units are in operation with an additional unit planned. Four of the combustion turbine units will deliver 110 megawatts of power each; two have a capacity rating of 164 megawatts each. They are fueled by either natural gas or fuel oil.
During periods of high demand, the combustion turbines can be started and come to full load in just 30 minutes-impressive when compared to the 10 hours needed to start up a coal-burning unit. The combustion turbine units use hot compressed gases to power the generator. Air is compressed and forced into a chamber where combustion takes place, producing gases of almost 2,000 degrees F. These gases are forced to a turbine, which uses the energy to propel the generator and create electricity.

The spillway on the Ruataniwha Dam.
The dam forms Lake Ruataniwha and is located in the Mackenzie Basin in New Zealand's South Island.
An artificial lake, it was formed as part of the Waitaki hydroelectric project. It lies on the traditional boundary of the Canterbury and Otago provinces with the town of Twizel two kilometres to the north.
It is named after Ruataniwha Station, a large sheep station in the area, part of which was purchased by the NZ Electricity Department as the site for the township of Twizel.
The lake is approximately 4.5 km in length and covers 3.4 square km.
It was formed by the New Zealand Ministry of Works as part of the Upper Waitaki Power Project between 1977[2] and 1981 in a gorge created by the Ohau River. The gorge was blocked by the building of the Ruataniwha Dam whose crest carries State Highway 8 between Twizel and Omarama.
Lake Ruataniwha is fed by the output from the Ohau A power station and also by an overflow discharge from Lake Ohau down the normally dry bed of the Ohau River.
The lake functions as a surge reservoir for the power scheme. If, during excessive inflows into Lake Ohau which Ohau A is unable to pass or, when there has been a failure of the Ohau canal, Lake Ohau can overflow a weir into the normally dry bed of the upper reaches of the Ohau River and thus into Lake Ruataniwha. Also, if water cannot pass down the canal to Ohau B then the excess inflows into the lake can be diverted by the spillway down the bed of the lower reaches of the Ohau River to Lake Benmore. While limited the storage capacity of the lake also ensures that the flows through Ohau A do not have to be exactly matched to those through Ohau B and Ohau C.
Ruataniwha discharges through a natural gap in the dam into a canal which feeds the Ohau B power station.
Before construction of the dam could start the Ohau River was diverted by cutting a channel through a low, rocky extension of the Benmore Range and building three diversion gates there which consumed 100,000 cubic metres of concrete. The Ohau River was diverted in August 1980 so that water passed through Ohau A and then back down the river bed. Later that year, downstream of Ohau A, the river was again diverted, this time away from its natural channel and through the completed gates. An earth dam with gravel shoulders was then built on its upstream and downstream sides. The main dam, which blocks the original river channel, is 240 metres long while an adjoining wing dam is 480 metres. When the dam was completed the diversion gates were closed which, beginning in March 1982,[5] impounded the water behind the dam up to and over a temporary weir which had been built downstream of Ohau A. In 1984 the lake was temporarily lowered by 3 metres while this weir was removed to improve the performance of the Ohau A power station. The diversion gates now function as spillway gates to allow excess water to pass safely through the dam.
