This Clean Coal: Briefing Paper follows the recent release of the Finkel Review report in June 2017.
The Finkel Review finds the electricity system must achieve four key outcomes:
1. Lower emissions
2. Increased security
3. Future reliability
4. Rewarding consumers
Coal power doesn’t meet the above criteria. Yet the Federal Government has introduced legislation to enable the Clean Energy Finance Corporation to invest in coal with carbon capture and storage.
This briefing paper demonstrates that there’s no such thing as ‘clean coal’ and that Australia must pursue a renewable energy future.
