Looks like Didcot B Power Station might not be producing much electricity for a while:
A major fire has broken out at Didcot B Power Station, Oxfordshire Fire and Rescue has said.
Twenty fire appliances are at the scene to battle the fire, which has broken out in one of the cooling towers.
The gas-burning power station has been in operation since 1997 and can supply the power to up to one million homes, according to energy company RWE npower.
Somebody on the news this morning was asking: so, those millions homes will be without power?

I bet someone is very glad that the wind is just right for wind turbines today.

The previous thread, as you call it, did NOT exist on the Berlin server when I posted. And I double-checked in the seconds before posting.
