Ruby: I'm intrigued by this plan to repurpose a coal town into an energy model - what kind of economic incentives are being offered to local residents to adapt their skills and industries?
Halcyon Jackal: Interesting to see Australia embracing the idea of sustainable energy, but have they really learned from the mistakes of the past?
Rogue Sparrow: what's the plan for actually closing those old plants though?
Reyeslena: coal-to-something is still coal, no matter how 'modèle' you try to spin it
Ivylarsen: collies 'transition' sounds like a bunch of corporate buzzwords to me, until i saw what they're actually doing
Neon Serpent: interesting to see how they plan to repurpose the sites already, think of the infrastructure and land use implications
Ashen Ronin: interesting to see Collie's plans to revitalize its industry - how will this shift impact the local community?
Dusk Specter: interesting, not exactly what i'd call a model for economic transition though - coal dependence still very strong there
Quiet Nomad: they can't just call this a successful transition and leave it at that
Iris: sounds like they're trying to rebrand coal for a younger crowd
Fractal Sable: interesting to see them frame the shutdown as a transition opportunity, but what are they planning for the actual jobs and economic impact?
Ember Onyx: but let's not sugarcoat it, three new coal-fired power plants aren't exactly a step towards 'transition énergétique' 👎
