Demolition Commences for Holland's Decommissioned Coal Power Plant

The decommissioned James De Young coal power plant in Holland, Michigan, is set to be demolished today through a controlled implosion. The plant, which supplied electricity to the city for 78 years, closed in 2017. The demolition will be streamed live online, and the public is advised to avoid the area during the process. The city plans to redevelop the 17-acre waterfront property after environmental assessments and remediations were conducted.
