  • Fossil Fails in the Smart State
    Fossil fails in the Smart State Gas and coal power plant breakdowns in Victoria Victorian brown coal-fired power plants are some of the worst performing stations in the National Electricity Market. With hot and dry conditions forecast for the rest of this summer, Victoria is at risk of further breakdowns of aging coal generators, insufficient supply and blackouts. Discussion paper Audrey Quicke Bill Browne February 2020 ABOUT THE AUSTRALIA INSTITUTE The Australia Institute is an independent public policy think tank based in Canberra. It is funded by donations from philanthropic trusts and individuals and commissioned research. We barrack for ideas, not political parties or candidates. Since its launch in 1994, the Institute has carried out highly influential research on a broad range of economic, social and environmental issues. OUR PHILOSOPHY As we begin the 21st century, new dilemmas confront our society and our planet. Unprecedented levels of consumption co-exist with extreme poverty. Through new technology we are more connected than we have ever been, yet civic engagement is declining. Environmental neglect continues despite heightened ecological awareness. A better balance is urgently needed. The Australia Institute’s directors, staff and supporters represent a broad range of views and priorities. What unites us is a belief that through a combination of research and creativity we can promote new solutions and ways of thinking. OUR PURPOSE – ‘RESEARCH THAT MATTERS’ The Institute publishes research that contributes to a more just, sustainable and peaceful society. Our goal is to gather, interpret and communicate evidence in order to both diagnose the problems we face and propose new solutions to tackle them.

  • Yallourn Mine Batter Failure Inquiry – 30 June 2008
    Mining Warden Yallourn Mine Batter Failure Inquiry __________________________________ Ordered to be printed __________________________________ VICTORIAN GOVERNMENT PRINTER No 156 Session 2006–08 Mining Warden - Yallourn Mine Batter Failure Inquiry EXECUTIVE SUMMARY I was appointed a Mining Warden in the State of Victoria and requested to undertake an Inquiry into the Yallourn Mine Batter Failure. The Terms of Reference for the inquiry were to: a) Establish the facts, circumstances and causes surrounding the collapse, b) Examine any mine safety issues and c) Make high level recommendations to prevent or minimise the risk of similar future events. This executive summary is presented as a brief summary of the findings of the Inquiry. The main body of the report includes detailed discussion on all elements. The executive summary should not be taken out of context or read in isolation from the main report. The failure occurred between 1:30am and 2:10am on 14th November 2007. The failure is located on the northeast batter (NE Batter) of the Yallourn East Field Mine (YEF). The NE Batter was in the process of final completion when the failure occurred. The failure was very large, it encompassed about six million cubic metres of material, was 500m long and occurred on a slope that was approximately 80m high. The failure occurred by a mechanism called block sliding, where a large block of coal slid horizontally across the mine floor. The failure extended as far back as the Latrobe River, which was completely diverted into the mine by the failure. There were two main causes for the failure. The principal cause was water pressure in a joint along the rear of the failure.
