Henderson Station One (HMP&L One) was a coal-fired power station owned and operated by the city of Henderson, Kentucky.

Citing rising costs and mounting environmental regulations, Henderson Municipal Power and Light closed its 58-year-old Station One power plant on Water Street by December 31, 2008. [1]

It has since been replaced by Henderson Station Two (HMP&L Two) as a part of Sebree Station.
