The last running turbine at the Liddell Power Station has powered down, marking the end of a 52-year legacy of generating electricity in the NSW Hunter Valley.
The final unit was switched off earlier this morning but took several hours before it completely stopped spinning at 10:30am.
Graeme McNeill has worked at Liddell for years and said it was an emotional day.
"The age of this station is 20-odd years past its use by date ... that doesn't happen by chance, that's dedication," he said.
