[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 645219, member: 4485"] Don't know about that Mackka. I do know that Mt Piper near Lithgow uses coal sourced from local mines. Eraring Power Station uses coal mainly directly from conveyors out of the local Mandalong Coal Mine as well as surplus needs from other Hunter Valley/NSW coal mines. Due to the current high coal prices Australian power stations are facing coal shortages &/or higher costs as they have to pay market spot price for surplus coal. This is another reason electricity costs are rising. Qld power stations examples: Coal to fuel Stanwell Power Station comes from Curragh Mine in Central Queensland. The Tarong power stations receive coal from the nearby Meandu Mine via a conveyor. Can't find any info on an Australian power station importing steaming coal? Possible though. [/QUOTE]
