Coal plants reported 23 planned outages but suffered 142 actual outages including 119 breakdowns over 6 months, unavailable 22% of the time or 4.7 GW daily on average.
Key Findings
- Financial Impact: AUD millions in lost generation revenue daily (4.7 GW at AUD 100/MWh = ~AUD 470k/hour lost)
- Frequency: Ongoing, e.g., 119 breakdowns in 6 months (April-Sep 2025)
- Root Cause: Poor outage planning and reporting leading to clustered unplanned breakdowns in aging infrastructure
Why This Matters
