Shut off their electricity. That should take care of the problem.
But they have wind and sun and tidal generation available to them so they can charge their leafs and volts. Dumb asses!
The existing plant is considered an eyesore in the middle of very expensive property, in a city that doesn’t have much buildable space left.
One cool thing about the old plant, though. One of its by-products was warm water, so some of it was diverted to Seaside Lagoon, a really cute municipal swimming pool and picnic area, with a sandy beach and fountains and a slide. (On the down side, this was hard to keep sanitary enough to swim in.)
