This turned out better than I had hoped.. It is a screen grab of a frame of a little video I took of the water flowing thru the dam, generating power to be used for both Washington and Oregon customers... Happy Telegraph Tuesday, Everybody!!
Mississippi Mills, Ontario
I'm pretty sure the guy who decided how to light this area was on acid.
But it is pretty cool.
Wind turbines at Lambrigg windfarm between Kendal and Sedbergh, Cumbria, UK. I think they look very elegant - but I suppose its a matter of taste!!
Ratcliffe on Soar power station at sunset. An early morning start at work means I can take an opportunity to leave the power station, head to my chosen location and shoot a sunset. It all makes for a good day.

Well I finally got to the field of ripening wheat before the combine harvester. It's looking nice. In this scene you can see that powerlines cross the field leading to the solar farm on the right. So there you go: farming the sun in traditional and modern ways.
The Richard L. Hearn Generating Station (named after Richard Lankaster Hearn) is a decommissioned electrical generating station in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The plant was originally fired by coal, but later converted to burn natural gas.

Seen late at night, Ratcliffe Power Station is working to provide energy for the surrounding counties.
1920s coal fired power generation plant in use until 1950. From 1964 till the present day the building has been owned and used by the Cranesville Block Company. Town of Florida, New York.

The photo showcases a power plant complex set against a cloudy sky. The foreground is dominated by a grassy hill, providing a natural vantage point. Two prominent, tall smokestacks release plumes of white smoke, indicating active operation. The power plant itself is a large, industrial structure with various components visible, including cooling towers and other machinery. In the background, a landscape of rolling hills and scattered buildings extends into the distance. Power lines crisscross the sky, adding to the industrial feel of the scene.
Rotterdam is docked at Port Everglades and we are waiting for what will happen to the passengers next so click, click, click.
Near the port terminal is a Florida Power & Light (FPL) electricity generating plant.
The Port Everglades power plant is #1 of 3 Power Plants in Fort Lauderdale, #2 of 6 Power Plants in Broward County, #62 of 276 Power Plants in Florida.
The first of the plant's four units went into operation at this location in 1960. That plant was demolished in 2013. The current facility was commissioned 01 April 2016 with a generating capacity of 1,250 MW.
The original plant was constructed before the Clean Air Act was adopted in 1970. It burned oil to make electricity.
The new plant relies primarily on natural gas emitting 90 percent less air pollution.
The new facility also runs on 35 percent less fuel per megawatt-hour.
FPL is the principal subsidiary of NextEra Energy Inc. (formerly FPL Group, Inc.), a Juno Beach, Florida-based power utility company serving roughly 4.9 million accounts and 10 million people in Florida.
The now demolished Longannet coal power station, on the north side of the Firth of Forth, Fife, as shot from Calton Hill, Edinburgh.
Based newr Kincardine on Forth, Longannet first went into operation in 1970. It was the last coal power station in Scotland, and was demolished in 2016.
Shot with a Nikon D40, fitted with a Tamron 70-300mm F4/5.6 DI LD (Nikon AFS) lens and processed in GIMP and Photoscape.
This massive machine is the stacker, a self-propelled railed conveyor belt that lifts coal from trains and piles along the intake feed for the power plant.

Last hours 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. The last of the steam before shut-down the next day.
This is Staion B Power in West Linn, Oregon. At 125 years old, it’s the third oldest hydropower plant in the country

Ratcliffe on Soar Power station cooling towers, Now out of use, coal was King, but is now a dirty word.
Climate change.....now we import a large percentage of our electricity, mainly from France at extortionate rates. What bollocks.

Eggborough Power Station is still in operation at the time of my photograph.
As of 2021 it has been demolished and the railway feeding it has been lifted.
Eggborough power station was a coal-fired power station in North Yorkshire, which was capable of co-firing biomass. It is situated on the River Aire, between the towns of Knottingley and Snaith, deriving its name from the nearby village of Eggborough. The station had a generating capacity of 1,960 megawatts, enough electricity to power 2 million homes, equivalent to the area of Leeds and Sheffield. The station closed in September 2018, but there are plans to replace it with a 2,500 megawatt gas power plant.[2]
The station began generating power in 1967, making use of nearby coal-reserves. It was built for, and initially operated by the Central Electricity Generating Board.
The bent rail in the foreground is an electromagnetic contact that opens and closes the dump doors on the Ortner hoppers. A shoe on the side of the cars, when in contact with the rails' magnetic field, releases the air valves that control the doors.
