Critics say JH Campbell coal-fired plant in western Michigan is expensive and emits high levels of toxic pollution
Trump administration orders to keep an ageing, unneeded Michigan coal-fired power plant online has cost ratepayers from across the US midwest about $113m so far, according to estimates from the plant’s operator and regulators.
Still, the US energy department last week ordered the plant to remain open for another 90 days.
The Trump administration in May ordered utility giant Consumers Energy to keep the 63-year-old JH Campbell coal plant in western Michigan, about 100 miles north-east of Chicago, online just as it was being retired.
Why does he have the power to force them to do that?
Coal fired, eh? Well there ya go. PEDOnald took bribe money and is doing what they told him to.
