The UK's last coal power station, Ratcliffe-on-Soar, is due to end operations on Monday.

The UK is about to stop producing any electricity from burning coal - ending its 142-year reliance on the fossil fuel.

The country’s last coal power station, at Ratcliffe-on-Soar, finishes operations on Monday after running since 1967.

This marks a major milestone in the country’s ambitions to reduce its contribution to climate change. Coal is the dirtiest fossil fuel producing the most greenhouse gases when burnt.
