Midwest Generation, which had come under intense pressure from environmental activists, Chicago residents and Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, told the mayor it would retire its Fisk power plant in 2012 and Crawford plant in 2014. Both have been operating for decades in the middle of the city’s Southwest side.
