From my post a few days back -
"For some reason the Aus Gov Bureau of Resources and Energy Economics have gone to the trouble of predicting the energy costs from DICE in Victoria from 2020 to 2050. Why would they do that? -
http://www.bree.gov.au/.../australian-energy-technology-assessment.doc
Table 4.5: Direct injection coal engine based on brown coal, LCOE, Victoria
LCOE ($/MWh) Year
Region – Victoria 2012 2020 2025 2030 2040 2050
With a Carbon Price n/a 129 143 157 184 200
Without a Carbon Price n/a 89 90 92 96 99"
The above little table shows electricity from DICE costing $129/mw with a carbon price and $89/mw without carbon price in 2020.
The following article shows that at present the cost of brown coal generation from existing power plants is $243/mw.
If that's not enough to convince the Vic Gov to fund Exergen/CSIRO/Dice then what is? Actually, I know what is, the CO2 savings!

"PUBLISHED: 6 hours 56 MINUTES AGO
The research says electricity can be supplied from a new wind farm at a cost of $80 a megawatt hour – for those projects built in the best locations – to $113 a MW/h. In contrast, electricity from a black coal power station ranges from $143 to $190 and from brown coal plants it is $243."
