Australia and Japan have agreed to work together to develop coal and LNG markets in the region, following talks between their respective prime ministers in the week ending 19 January. Japanese technology could be used for high-efficiency, low-emissions coal power plants in south-east Asia, with coal to be potentially supplied from Australian mines. A consortium led by Kawasaki Heavy Industries will also look at whether brown coal from Latrobe Valley in Victoria can be converted into liquid hydrogen and exported for use in Japan.
