There will never be another coal fired power station built in Australia (caveat: maybe with CCS, if it ever becomes a reality). They are expensive to build, they are expensive to run and they have an in-built time bomb in terms of their carbon emissions. If one gets built here without any form of CCS or some other emissions reduction technology I will eat my hat. Anyone who thinks otherwise is living in the past, like most people here on HC.

One by one, coal plants will wilt and close as they become more uncompetitive. This process will accelerate as our world begins to insist fossil fuel companies pay for polluting the one atmosphere we all share.
