One of the world’s largest lithium battery plants went up in flames on Thursday, prompting evacuations and warnings to stay inside to avoid noxious fumes in Monterey County. “There’s no way to sugar coat it,” Monterey County Supervisor Glenn Church told KSBW. “This is a disaster.”

The Moss Landing Power Plant, located about 90 miles south of San Francisco, caught fire Thursday afternoon, prompting evacuation orders for the nearby area and the closure of Highway 1. Road closures and evacuations are still in place as of Friday morning and can be found on Monterey County’s emergency alert feed.

Beyond the evacuation zone, county officials are asking a wide swath of the region to “stay indoors, keep windows and doors closed, limit outdoor exposure, and turn off ventilation systems.” North Monterey County Unified School District said all schools will be closed Friday due to the fire.

The facility is owned by Texas company Vistra Energy and contains tens of thousands of lithium batteries...........https://www.cryptogon.com/?p=71829
