Shut down in 2009.

But still secure....

With lots of patrols....

The power station is an integral part of the HF4 Blast Furnace site in Belgium.

 

Steel making requires a lot of power, so many sites have their own power station to meet this demand. The plant at HF4 contains two turbines, but does not have its own boiler house. Steam was provided from a near-by power station at Monceau-sur-Sambre (often called Power Plant IM) via a huge pipeline connecting the two sites.

 

A stand-by diesel generator is also housed in the turbine hall. The blast furnace was mothballed in 2008 and the power station was closed down shortly after in 2009.
