If that power plant were real, I'd half-expect otaku to make "pilgrimages" to it.

It (well, if it existed) isn't even technically a power plant, just a facility for transforming high voltage electricity from primary power lines to lower voltage electricity for secondary neighbourhood power lines.

Here's a photo of one such substation in Dorval, Quebec that I took in 2002.

Even if someone wanted to visit a substation, they're fenced off for good reason, not that there's much to see. No sexy cooling towers or mighty turbines or anything interesting.
