Abandoned Power Plant Exploration
Фильм және анимация
Located in Italy near the coast of the Mediterranean Sea sits an abandoned power plant on the edge of an enormous industrial site. The power plant was originally built in 1950 and was specifically built to generate power and electricity for a steel mill and its monster blast furnaces. The steel mill and it’s power plant were both located within the huge shoreline industrial site. The power plant, which was the primary focus of our explore, had 9 separate turbines and happened to be the largest plant that any of us had ever explored before. Exploring the power plant gave us a look back at history from the height of the industrial boom long ago. The amount of decay was immense and a real sight to see as certainly the nearby salt water had taken its toll on all the metal and steel, causing rust and corrosion throughout. The floor plan of the power plant was pretty much the same standard set up that we would see in America. The main floor held all nine turbines and many of their control mechanisms and valves. In the lower level, underneath the turbines, would have been where the boilers were located. Then upstairs was the main control room, which gave the plant workers a great overhead view of the entire main floor and turbines, which helped keep an eye on production and the all too important role of worker safety. And finally the roof of the plant had light blue skylights which gave the whole interior a blue-ish hue color, which add a bit of a mystical vibe to the photographs.
The power plant operated for nearly 50 years before it eventually closed in the mid 1990s. The plant closed when the steel mill built a brand new more modern and energy efficient power plant, which still operates today. This power plant in Italy was an amazing location and truly an experience to have been a part of it. We want to thank everyone for watching and for more photos from the power plant and our many other locations, check out www.abandonedcentral.com
Rest In Paradise Rebecca. You are truly loved and missed by everyone. #Bwordliveson

This guy travels to Italy to explore, man what a life!
Wow. Its always amazing how these massive complexes are just abandoned when such a huge amount of time money and resources go into the construction.

Very cool video on this power plant! In my home city, our original power plant is now a museum and you can go on guided tours to visit the boiler, control rooms, and the turbine hall, I think they used some form of Parsons turbines back in the day 👍

We need power plants. Wind and solar would never power the homes and cities and manufacturing that we have
Each turbine had to molded andcast specific for a one of one part holy batshit
Glad to see it, you mean the beginning of the end of the book as the Asian theater would take over and give the death ☠️ knoll to all of these places.

The world still gets electricity from power plants. That statement confused me at the beginning where it was eluded to that we don't get power from power plants.
Had to be deafening
One less air and water polluter.
Probably wouldn't make financial sense to recycle any of it unfortunately. Juice ain't worth the squeeze sometimes.
Such a shame that all of this waste.
They have stolen all of the pieces to get any of it running.
ahhh yes blue Asbestos insulation!.......great(not) i still have asbestos in my house but it doesn't hurt us because we don't tamper it
