This sculptural centre of a small traffic roundabout may surround an underground car park ventilator. I can find no information about it on line. It doesn't seem to be regarded as an artwork, unlike the reclining orange female on the other side of the power station building.

The viewing platform at the top of the right hand chimney is 109 metres from ground level. The lift to the top is named 'Lift 109'.

Battersea Power Station from the train from Victoria
These two photographs were taken while the endless wrangling over the power station's future was going on.

The current ones are reproductions.
