White House moves to keep costly, dirty, unneeded Michigan coal plants open
The Trump administration is moving to keep open two Michigan coal plants that emit about 45% of the state's greenhouse gas pollution, which opponents say is an indication of how the US president plans to wield his controversial national energy emergency executive order. Already, the US Department of Energy (DoE) has ordered the JH Campbell coal plant on Lake Michigan to remain open beyond its 31 May closure date, while the administration is expected to prolong the life of the Monroe power plant on Lake Erie, currently scheduled to begin closing in 2028. Opponents say the order has little support in Michigan, could cost ratepayers hundreds of millions of dollars, and is ideologically driven. The state's utilities have said they did not ask for the plants to stay online, and the Trump administration did not communicate with stakeholders before the order, a spokesperson for the Michigan public service commission (MPSC), which regulates utilities and manages the state's grid, told the Guardian. 'The unnecessary recent order … will increase the cost of power for homes and businesses in Michigan and across the midwest,' the chair of the MPSC, Dan Scripps, said in a statement. 'We currently produce more energy in Michigan than needed. As a result, there is no existing energy emergency in either Michigan or [the regional US grid].' The massive and ageing facilities also release high levels of carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide and particulate matter into the air. Meanwhile, their coal ash ponds leach arsenic, lead, lithium, radium and sulfate into local drinking water and the Great Lakes. The Monroe power plant is responsible for more arsenic water pollution than any other power plant in the US. The DoE in a statement told the Guardian the plan was about grid reliability, and added: 'Decommissioning baseload power sources such as coal plants would jeopardize the reliability of our grid systems. 'This administration is committed to ensuring Americans have access to reliable, affordable, and secure energy that isn't dependent on whether the sun shines or the wind blows,' a spokesperson added. However, Consumers Energy said in May said it did not need to keep the coal plant online to meet energy needs. It recently bought a nearby gas plant, and has begun building large-scale renewable installations. The Midcontinent Independent System Operator, which maintains the regional grid across 15 states, issued a report stating that while there is some risk for power disruption in the summer months, it is low, and 'adequate resources are available to maintain reliability'. That could set the stage for a lawsuit from Michigan's attorney general, Dana Nessel, who said in May she may sue over the order to keep the Campbell plant open, and labeled Trump's energy emergency 'fabricated'. The Campbell plant will initially remain open for 90 days, but the order is expected to be renewed, said Jan O'Connell, senior energy organizer with the Sierra Club Michigan. Michigan's climate law requires 100% clean energy for utilities by 2040. Consumers Energy, which owns the Campbell plant, has since 2021 been planning for the plant's closure as required by the state's energy plan. The company said the Campbell plant's closure would save ratepayers about $600m by 2040. Sign up to Down to Earth The planet's most important stories. Get all the week's environment news - the good, the bad and the essential after newsletter promotion The plant largely shut down for several days before reopening at the end of May, O'Connell said. She noted that many of the employees had already found other jobs, and purchasing coal on the spot is far more expensive than purchasing it months ahead of time, as is standard. The administration's order is costly and disruptive, and makes no sense for Consumers Energy or its customers, O'Connell said. 'This is going to cost the ratepayers a lot of money,' she added. The Trump administration's plans are also at odds with market forces, opponents say. Gas and renewables are generally cheaper and cause less pollution. Moreover, the nation's utilities are planning to reduce coal generation by more than 8GW by the end of the year, according to the US Energy Information Administration. O'Connell said it appeared to be an ideological move with no basis in the needs of residents or the energy market. 'This is part of their goal to get rid of renewables and bring back fossil fuels,' she added.

Services Preparatory Institute to get full-time director soon
Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: Services Preparatory Institute (SPI) is expected to get a new full-time director soon. The post was vacant since Nov 2022. SPI authorities said on Tuesday that Maharashtra Public Service Commission (MPSC) has finalised the name of a Pune-based retired colonel as the new director. "MPSC recommended the name of a new director after following the laid down procedure. The general administration department is expected to make the formal appointment in the next one or two weeks," officials said. SPI, under whose aegis Girls SPI at Nashik also functions, has shown stellar performance by placing a relatively higher number of cadets in govt defence institutions compared to many other Sainik schools. SPI also witnessed the formation of a revamped governing council, with the appointment of retired senior officials from the Army, Navy, and Air Force along with the divisional commissioner of Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar. Lieutenant General (retd) Rajendra Ramrao Nimbhorkar is now the chairman of the governing council, whereas the divisional commissioner will be the ex-officio vice-chairman. Brigadier (retd) Hemant Mahajan, Rear Admiral (retd) Ashish Kulkarni, and Air Vice Marshal (retd) Nitin Vaidya are the members of the council, which will also have the director of Sainik Welfare, Pune, and SPI director as designated members. Set up in 1977, SPI provides personalised coaching for UPSC (NDA) written entrance examination and interviews of the SSB, besides building physical and mental abilities of cadets. The girls' SPI at Nashik came up in 2023 and emerged as one of the most sought-after military schools.

‘2 years seemed worthless in an instant': How a Pune drunk driver's reckless act destroyed a woman's MPSC preparation
Written by Shubham Kurale The evening of May 31 started like any other for Gulnaz Ahmed. After hours of intense preparation for the Maharashtra Public Service Commission (MPSC) Group C exam, she stepped out for the routine tea break at Shree Nathsai Amrutulya stall in Pune's Sadashiv Peth. Little did she know that this ordinary moment would shatter two years of dreams in just a few seconds. As she was standing with her friend at around 5.45 pm, discussing current affairs after a day of rigorous preparation, a speeding car driven allegedly by an inebriated man without a driving license crashed into the tea stall, leaving 12 people, including four MPSC aspirants, injured. 'Even if it hurts, I will get back to my previous routine' For Ahmed, a 23-year-old from Nagpur, this wasn't just another accident but a traumatic fate to a carefully planned journey that began right after her graduation. Convincing her parents to let her move to Pune for MPSC preparation has been a battle in itself. 'My parents gave me a strict two-year deadline. I completed that period without attempting the exam once. The accident happened just one day before the Group C exam scheduled for June 1, which had already been postponed before. Two years of early morning study sessions, afternoon revision slots, and evening discussions about current affairs seemed worthless in an instant following the accident,' said Ahmed. The impact left Ahmed with a hip injury and muscle damage to her left leg. Initially taken to Yogesh Hospital in Sadashiv Peth, she had to be shifted to Deenanath Mangeshkar Hospital when basic diagnostic equipment wasn't available at the first facility. 'The doctors wanted to admit me, but I couldn't afford the expenditure of over Rs 10,000 per day, as there is already a financial strain during the preparation of the competitive exam. The pain was unbearable, but I returned home the same night,' said Ahmed. The medical bills, damaged phone, and medicines have created a financial burden of over Rs 30,000 for her family — her father runs a small scrap shop, and her mother is a homemaker. Despite promises from several politicians, no financial help has been given yet. Perhaps the most distressing aspect of Ahmed's ordeal was her inability to immediately tell her parents about the accident. 'I couldn't reveal this to my parents, as they would worry and call me back to Nagpur. It took me five days to build the courage to tell them,' she said. Despite being advised to complete bed rest for a month, Ahmed refuses to give up. 'One cannot be disconnected from studies for so long in the cut-throat competitive examination world. Even if it hurts, I will get back to my previous routine,' she said. Her request to the Maharashtra Public Service Commission is simple yet profound. 'It may be difficult for the Commission to retake the exam, but we urge them to consider this as a special case and allow a re-exam for those who have missed due to this incident,' she added. Ahmed's accident has also brought to light the challenges faced by thousands of students who flock to Pune for competitive exam preparation. 'Though Pune is considered the hub of competitive exams, the standard of living has been abysmally low. The food quality is poor, accommodation is expensive, and now even the roads have become unsafe,' said Ahmed. The accident didn't just affect students. Sandeep Khopade, a pharmaceutical marketing professional, was also among those enjoying a tea break with colleagues after a hectic day's work when the drunk driver changed his life forever. 'It was our refreshment time, we were planning over the marketing strategy, cracking jokes, and exchanging ideas over a tea when this accident happened that left my right leg fractured,' said Khopade. While insurance might cover the expenses of over Rs 2.5 lakh, the real worry for Khopade is his career. As the sole breadwinner of his family, Khopade faces the prospect of a four-month bed rest period that could jeopardise his job. 'My employer may not allow four months' leave, and can also replace me. The fracture will not make me able to move swiftly as I did before, which is necessary in a marketing job. So this accident has affected not just me, but my entire family'. 'We demand that the driver should not get bail, as was seen in the Porsche car accident case last year. As this will set a wrong precedent and encourage people to break rules and play with others' lives,' added Khopade. Shubham Kurale is an intern with The Indian Express
