Return to service of damaged coal unit delayed yet again

The return to service of the damaged C4 unit at Queensland’s Callide C coal fired power station has been delayed yet again – for the ninth time by some counts – to provide more time for testing and “quality insurance”.

The 420 megawatt (MW) C4 unit went out of service in spectacular fashion in May, 2021 when an explosion ripped through the power plant, cutting power to hundreds of thousands of customers and very nearly sending the state into a system wide blackout.

A structural failure at the cooling towers in late October the next year meant that the C3 unit also had to be take offline. That unit returned to service in April, but the return of C4 – after a major rebuild – has been repeatedly delayed.

The most recent delay had pushed the return to service back to July 22 this year, but late on Friday joint owners CS Energy announced that the date had been pushed back to August 31.
