THE LAND OF COAL IS SHORT COAL
Australia?s biggest coal plant can?t get enough coal, as fossil fuel disaster accelerates: https://reneweconomy.com.au/origin-warns-of-coal-supply-shortages-high-prices-to-continue/
In its quarterly update, Origin confirms its view that the price rises were being driven by coal plant outages and high fossil fuel prices, and warns it will continue in at least the near term until more renewables can be brought into the grid.
?The challenges with coal delivery to Eraring Power Station are expected to persist into FY2023,? it says in its quarterly update.
?This is expected to result in a material increase in coal purchasing costs given high coal prices and continued exposure to high spot electricity prices.
?While Origin has worked closely with coal suppliers to secure additional coal supply by rail, there are limitations to the amount of coal that can be delivered to the plant by this method. Therefore, there is uncertainty regarding the plant?s output in FY2023.
