CALGARY - TransAlta Corp. says the U.S. Department of Energy has ordered it to keep a coal plant in Washington State online for another three months.

Coal-fired generation had been set to wind down at the Centralia Unit 2 facility by the end of 2025 before the plant was to be retooled to run on cleaner-burning natural gas.
