This is the city of Thomasville's fully
restored original
power plant located on Fletcher St. near Flower's Bakery. This was the
source of power to light street lamps in the early 1900's
The plants' steam generators were originally driven by a 35 horse power car engine. See coal. Many people are looking to nuclear energy to replace coal. Electrical power leaves power plants like this over transmission lines that serve the same purpose as the insulated copper wire in a simple circuit.
