If they dump excess heat in a nearby river it has a very real environmental impact. Lot's of fish get into trouble if the water they live in rises in temperature too much. In holland we have had a few occasions where the national grid operator, TenneT, gave a 'code red' because electricity supply was becoming endangered, because power plants could no longer dump excess heat in the rivers because the temperature got too high. At some point they can't dump the heat anymore and have to shut down.
