澳大利亚一党领导人宝琳·汉森宣布计划强制AGL能源公司将维多利亚州最大的燃煤电厂洛伊阳A保持运营至2035年后1。然而AGL能源公司对此计划提出严厉警告，称延长这一老化电厂的运营将增加成本和计划外停运风险，最终可能导致电价上升和停电1。
洛伊阳A电厂到2035年将超过50年运龄，已列全球最老燃煤电厂之列1。该电厂通常占维多利亚州电网的30%1。尽管一党的要求，AGL能源公司维持其原定于2035年关闭该电厂的计划不变1。
能源专家进一步指出，强制延长洛伊阳A的运营将导致更频繁的故障、电价大幅波动和对昂贵燃气发电的更多依赖1。维持老化煤电基础设施将阻滞可再生能源部门的部署1。与此同时，东澳大利亚一半以上的剩余煤电站已计划在2035年前关闭1。近期澳洲能源监管机构因创纪录的可再生能源贡献和电池安装，已为数十万客户降低电费最高10%1。
Australia's One Nation party leader Pauline Hanson has announced plans to force AGL Energy to keep Loy Yang A, Victoria's largest coal-fired power station, operating beyond 2035 1. AGL has rejected the proposal, maintaining its existing closure plan for that year while cautioning that forced extension would increase operating costs, raise the risk of unplanned outages, and potentially drive up electricity prices and trigger blackouts 1.
Loy Yang A will be over 50 years old by 2035, placing it among the world's oldest coal-fired plants 1. The facility typically supplies approximately 30 percent of Victoria's grid power 1. According to energy experts, prolonging the operation of aging coal infrastructure would impede renewable energy deployment and cause electricity price volatility 1. Energy consultant Stephanie Bashir warned that mandating continued operation of Loy Yang A would result in more frequent failures, significant price swings, and increased reliance on expensive gas-fired generation 1.
The push to extend Loy Yang A's life comes as more than half of remaining coal-fired power stations across eastern Australia are scheduled to close before 2035 1. Meanwhile, Australia's energy regulator recently lowered electricity bills by up to 10 percent for hundreds of thousands of customers, citing record renewable energy contributions and battery installations 1.
