Talk:List of least carbon efficient power stations

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This isn't really a list of the most polluting power stations, but the ones emitting the most carbon dioxide. There's some debate as to if CO₂ should really be considered a pollutant... I mean, I spend most of my time emitting it.

I suggest moving this to List of power stations emitting the most carbon dioxide, which is a more accurate name. If noone objects, I'll do this in a few days. — PyTom 13:25, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Agreed, though it should probably be something like 'list of most carbon intensive power stations', or something like that, as it lists tons per watt hour, not overall emissions.

This is probably a fairly pointless list is it includes, for example, Cockenzie power station which is run as a 'marginal station', operating only at peak times. So although it emits lots of carbon per kilowatt hour, its overall emissions are not great. - Crosbiesmith (talk) 19:33, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
