Power Plant Demolition Compilation

[@tfrowlett8752]

1:26 I love how that one looks like a movie explosion but without fuel canisters, just coal dust

[@garymiller5937]

Fabulous demolitions!!! Thanks for catching them on tape. 😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤

This will come back to haunt us some day...

[@Pissedoffdetective]

Already has in many parts of the USA. Brown Outs everywhere this winter.

[@walterzoomie]

@@Pissedoffdetective I believe it. We had almost two weeks of no sunshine and sub-freezing temps here in central Indiana. Solar and windmills ain't gonna cut it.

[@Palkia8842]

I'm sure many of these were because they were old, outdated, and ineffective, stuff like that. Some of them probably wouldn't have been demolished if it was worth fixing them up and modernizing them. Some might've been torn down for new ones to be built.

[@slimlol-j5b]

No, it won't because they're all outdated, and they aren't nuclear power plants.

[@AdhamOhm]

@@walterzoomie Coal is getting replaced by natural gas, not by renewables. Natural gas is easily portable and (at the moment) plentiful and relatively cheap (much cheaper than coal) thanks to Bush-era fracking deregulation and lower extraction and maintenance costs. While solar and wind sources are increasing over the last few years, their increases (in terawatt hours per year) are comically tiny compared to natural gas, which is the US grid's largest fuel source and still growing.

Great way to start off a Friday!

[@jamesalinio5277]

I'm always happy to see a great demolition upload, the intricacy of placing the charges in the exact spot, the many man hours to get it all set up just for a brief moment in time for people to witness, it's a thing of beauty to behold as it all comes together in a brief few seconds, just awesome The issue I see here though, almost all of the structures shown in this video were coal fired plants, I can understand the need to replace outdated facilities, and the remediation of the property, but, what was put in the former structures place to provide electrical energy, or was the facility left to the environment to take over, humans use huge amounts of electricity, where is the energy coming from, a nuke? Hydro? Another coat plant?

[@absurdengineering]

Natural gas plants are fairly compact relative to coal fired ones. You may have one or more within the bounds of a major city and not even know it. Natural gas fueled generating stations are mostly replacing those plants. Some slack is picked up by renewables.

[@jamesalinio5277]

@@absurdengineering thanks for the feedback, I do hope that the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania sees this and starts using gas fired plants to conduct energy

[@illuminate4622]

Wind, solar and gas. And now increasingly batteries, although they don't generate energy. But they can provide reliable capacity.

All I see is future rolling blackouts because we’re literally blowing up our energy production. I’ve already had several people who work in that industry all say that we’re basically screwed.

[@MayaPosch]

On the positive side, a lot of nuclear plants were saved or are being restarted after facing decommissioning. The US just needs to get good at big infrastructure projects like nuclear plants again. So much know-how and parts of supply chains have been lost since the 1970s.

[@spaceflight1019]

​@@MayaPoschThree Mile Island is still being decommissioned, and PJM has the nerve to complain about how retirements are outpacing replacement.

[@absurdengineering]

Utter nonsense. Installed generating base in the US is constantly growing. Those old relics just take up space. They have sat disused for a good while now. Rolling blackouts due to insufficient generation capacity will be a problem if we run out of natural gas ie. not anytime soon. If anything, the distribution grid is a choke point. We have plenty of capacity now. Those demolitions are a tiny sliver of the pie. Let’s not get all worked up over nothing.

[@brianwillson9567]

Demolition of power stations is an insanity.

[@absurdengineering]

It’s not. Those are run down, useless remnants. The stations have not been operating for years now. They have been replaced mostly by natural gas-fired plants that take much less space for the same capacity. Many peaker plants are now within city limits and people don’t even notice unless they know what to look for.

[@illuminate4622]

We have wind turbines, solar panels and batteries that can be installed in a modular fashion. They are better than traditional power stations. Don't consume any water, for one.

Were these coal power plants?

Yes, they were.

[@warbirdwf]

Hum.. so much for the coal industry resurgence.

[@spaceflight1019]

No capacity payment, no power stations. The grid operators hold an auction every year, and if nobody wants your power, you can run as a pirate, like Keystone and Conemaugh and lose money, or run as a peaker and lose money, or shut it down and tear it down.

What is the purpose of the pre-charges before the main detonations? Can't figure it out.

[@LOLMAN9538]

The pre-charges are used as a strategic measure to catalyze the explosion, and are progressively detonated on supports throughout the structure.

[@bertferri-5685]

@@LOLMAN9538Thanks but I'm kinda dense. What does 'catalyze the explosion ' mean?

[@LOLMAN9538]

@@bertferri-5685 Basically, it's saying that the pre charges are preparing the building for the bigger charges to come in and bring it down.
