Concrete Power Plant Stacks Come Down : CEG


Tue December 29, 2020 - West Edition #1
Associated Press
FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) Three towering concrete stacks that were the most visual reminders of a coal-fired power plant that operated for decades along the Arizona-Utah state line came down on Dec. 18, 2020.
The 775-ft. (236-m) structures loomed over the Navajo Generating Station, a 2,250 megawatt plant that closed in 2019 as natural gas became a cheaper alternative for electricity. Their flashing lights became a beacon in the community and a sign to travelers in a remote area that they were approaching Page.
I have mixed emotions because I ve spent most of my life as a constructor, and now I m wearing a different hat in the demolition mode, said Gary Barras, a project management director of the Salt River Project, the Arizona utility that operated the plant. I know personally how hard it was to design and build those stacks. ....

Largest Coal-fired Power Plant in U.S. West Demolished
 
PAGE, Arizona, December 19, 2020 (ENS) – For 45 years the Navajo Generating Station was the largest coal-fired power plant in the western United States – a 2.25-gigawatt facility located on the Navajo Nation, near Lake Powell in Arizona that spread air pollution far and wide. In November 2019, the plant ended commercial generation, and on Friday, its three tall smokestacks all went down in smoke.

The Navajo Generating Station’s smokestacks, as tall as a 77 story-building, were demolished in a single explosive blast. In addition to the stacks, the 199-foot high steel-frame Unit 3 electro-static precipitator, which captured fly ash so it would not be emitted into the atmosphere, was simultaneously demolished. ....

Three towering concrete stacks that were the most visual reminders of a coal-fired power plant that operated for decades along the Arizona-Utah state line came down Friday. The 775-foot (236-meter) structures loomed over the Navajo Generating Station, a 2,250 megawatt plant that closed last year as natural gas became a cheaper source of energy. It was a symbol of economic stability in a region where good-paying jobs are hard to come by but also the longtime target of environmentalists for its pollution and reliance on fossil fuel and water. ....
