Endesa Termic
Endesa Termic is a 356-metre-high (1,168 ft) chimney belonging to the coal power plant held by Spanish utility Endesa at As Pontes de García Rodríguez in the outskirts of Ferrol in the province of A Coruña, north-western Spain. Endesa Termic was built in 1974 and is the second tallest chimney in Europe. The plant is currently undergoing a process of adaptation to the higher calorific value of hard coal due to the end of lignite extraction in the local mine. Another combined-cycle thermal power plant is currently being tested, which uses gas as fuel and produces 800 MW of power between its three turbines: two gas turbines and one steam turbine. The steam used by the latter is produced using the heat from the exhaust gases of the gas turbines.
