Tips
A coal-fired power plant and the associated coal storage are of course no aesthetic highlight. But since we can assume that sooner or later, there will not be any more, you can really enjoy the "nostalgia" :-)

In 1962/63 the first two power plant blocks with an output of approx. 150 MW each were built. Block 3 with 280 MW was added in 1966 (converted to district heating in 1987). Unit 3 had an efficiency of only 30 percent. In 1988 the power plant was retrofitted with a flue gas desulphurisation system.Source: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kraftwerk_Herne
