Conspiracy people, feel free to rant
Others, can anyone else just imagine that tower (go to the second comment), spitting out 20 foot bolts of lightning? This makes me feel like going for the woulds largest tesla coil record... first I need fundz...

This plant is not much differerent from elements of Outdoor Test System IP 400/4000 G sold by the German firm HIGHVOLT Prüftechnik Dresden GmbH, about which there is nothing sinister.

The single towers are Marx generators up to 6-9MEV if I recall. There is a famous old Russian photo of a 300+ foot spark from a similar generator. This is not as ridiculous as it sounds as there is anomalous growth in length as the voltage rises. That is why lightning at 10 - 100MEV can jump 10 miles. Effects of triggering cosmic rays developing relativistic electrons etc. This was one of the reasons proposed for the research use of the super TC proposed by Greg Leyh.
The complex towers are voltage multipliers and cascaded transformers. None of them are Tesla coils.
