AGL's updated plans to bring forward the closure of its dirty coal-burning power station Loy Yang A from 2045 to 2035 show the company has bowed to community, shareholder, and activist pressure, and must now go even further to ensure a safer climate and economic future for Australia, Greenpeace Australia Pacific says. Loy Yang A is a brown coal fired thermal power station owned by AGL Energy in the La Trobe Valley in Victoria, Australia. It was commissioned in 1985 and is due to close by 2048, which is well beyond what scientists are calling for in order to prevent further catastrophic climate change (2030). AGL Energy is Australia's single largest climate polluter. In just over a year, AGL has gone from being a company that took Greenpeace to court for calling it out as Australia's biggest climate polluter, to now taking significant steps towards decarbonisation and bringing coal closure forward by a decade.
