Antelope Valley Station is a coal-fired power plant in the United States in North Dakota.[1][2][3][4] One of the reasons it is significant is because of environmental damage from local coal mining and pollution from the plant.[5] As of 2026, it is estimated that the plant causes 28 deaths per year due to soot and smog pollution.[6]
