when @CraigKellyMP says they's almost 600 'HELE' coal power stations under construction totalling around 650,000MW, is he right?

nope. and nope. he's just making it up. #auspol

when @CraigKellyMP says japan is building 40 'HELE' power stations, is he right?

nope. just 5 — so few we can list in 1 tweet: Takehara, Noshiro, Hitachinaka Kyodo, Sumitomo Metals Kashima, Matsuura Kyushu.

they total just 3.5GW, & they haven't finished any in the past 7 years.

when @CraigKellyMP says there're many 💯s of ‘HELE’ stations operating throughout SE asia, is he right?

nope. there’re only 10:

indonesia: Adipala, Banten Serang, Cilacap Sumber, Cirebon, Paiton-3
malaysia: Manjung, Tanjung Bin
thailand: Gheco One
vietnam: Duyen Hai-3, Vinh Tan

when @CraigKellyMP says "we need to get 1 or 2 of these built", does he know that we already have 4? and they are _not_ low emissions! #auspol

and why all the fuss about #liddell?

13 coal power stations have closed in the last 5 years. the next won’t close for 4 years — plenty of time to ‘replace’ it.

(hazelwood was replaced within months.)

AEMO is not worried. why is turnbull? #auspol

if there is _anyone_ within the coalition machine reading this thread, please put this op-ed in front of @CraigKellyMP.

yes, my facts are different from the @MineraIsCounciI’s propaganda — but i’m prepared to have mine scrutinised.

#auspol

kelly lied again.
