Part of the Longannet coal-fired power station in Fife has been brought down in a controlled explosion. ScottishPower’s demolition contractors, Brown and Mason, demolished the remaining section of the boiler house on Thursday morning. It was the last major structure to be brought down ahead of the demolition of the stack at the site, which is expected to take place later this year. Longannet, which closed in 2016, was Scotland’s largest coal-fired power station and had been generating power since 1970. The station was capable of producing enough electricity to power two million homes each year.
