Alabama Power coal ash ponds face new scrutiny after report warns of Mobile-Tensaw Delta flood risk

An Inside Climate News investigation published on Monday said Alabama Power’s coal-ash ponds along Alabama waterways could place hundreds of square miles of land and water at risk if earthen barriers holding back the waste were to breach. The report said more than 117 million tons of coal sludge are stored at six sites, including an unlined pond at the James M. Barry plant that holds more than 21 million tons and could inundate about 25 square miles of the Mobile-Tensaw Delta if dikes fail. Inside Climate News

The Journal said Caterpillar is investing $725 million to expand a Lafayette, Indiana plant and plans to more than double turbine-engine production by 2030 after power-and-energy sales rose 22% to $7.8 billion in 2024.
