INDIANTOWN, Fla. – Florida Power & Light demolished the 500-foot-tall stack and chute of its last coal plant in the state Wednesday as the company has ended its use of coal in Florida.
The Indiantown Cogeneration Plant in Martin County is FPL’s last coal-fired plant, which formally closed in December 2020.
