Kilroot Power Station Northern Ireland Drone Flight

THE coal burners have been switched off for the last time at Kilroot Power Station in Carrickfergus, which has kept the lights on in Northern Ireland since 1981.
The plant, now part-owned by Czech billionaire Daniel Kretínský, has begun its transition from fossil fuel to lower carbon gas generation, and the commercial operation of the new gas turbines will follow at the start of next year.
