Former prime minister Tony Abbott says it is by no means certain that the Coalition’s joint party room meeting will endorse the national energy guarantee on 14 August. He says it would be "appalling" if the NEG is approved, warning that it could result in Australia’s "de-industrialisation". Meanwhile, Delta Electricity chairman Trevor St Baker says the company will build a new high-efficiency, low-emissions coal-fired power station if the NEG is endorsed by Coalition MPs. This could be a replacement for the Hazelwood power station in Victoria or a new one at the site of its Vales Point power station in New South Wales.
