It's privately funded

 

Unless they are lottery winners that are feeling a bit flush that doesn’t mean it will be “free”, it just means that the costs will be passed on through whatever business is funding it.

In a couple of years a new EON power station will be running on that site, so you will have your cooling towers back.

So they are going to build a coal / coke fire power station then.

It would if it were to be representative. Sheffield produces more steel nowadays than it ever did before.

That is a very broad statement and worthy of a thread of its own.
