South32 uses coal supplied by Griffin Coal to help generate steam used to make alumina at its Worsley refinery in Western Australia. Griffin is having trouble meeting its supply contracts for Worsley and the Bluewaters Power plant, and was placed into administration by its bankers in the week commencing 12 September. South32 has indicated it plans to import some of Worsley’s coal needs until domestic supplies can resume, and WA Energy Minister Bill Johnston has indicated he will not stand in its way. His comments are in contrast to those made by him in 2019 when he indicated the WA government would not allow coal imports.
