    Dramatic footage posted to Twitter shows the plant’s implosion. (You should really watch it.) Local outlet KTOK reported that the explosions were meant to remove towers used in turning coal to gas as part of the plant’s original design—a design that failed spectacularly. The demolition is the last chapter in a decade-long, multi-billion-dollar disaster of a story about attempts to make clean coal happen.

    I well remember the false claims about ‘clean coal’ and hopes for this plant. Physics and chemistry won’t be denied.

    Yeah. They should have built a super critical coal plant. That would have been much better right? /s
