SYDNEY - Australia's biggest grid has released a multibillion-dollar plan to ease its transition away from coal and avoid pitfalls that earlier this month led to the unprecedented step of temporarily taking over the spot power market.
The roadmap foresees a"double transformation" where electricity demand almost doubles by 2050 while the coal plants that currently form the backbone of the grid retire faster than announced, with 60 per cent of capacity withdrawn by the end of this decade. The uncertain investment environment, combined with unusually high demand, surging international fuel prices and failures at several key coal plants, contributed to the unprecedented suspension of the spot power market from June 15 to 24.
"The newly elected Labor government has a golden opportunity to use these unprecedented events to plan for a new stable, low-cost and decarbonised power market."
