House of Assembly Fifty-Third Parliament, Second Session (53-2) 53 2 Parliament of South Australia House of Assembly published Question Time Electricity Generation Electricity Generation Mr VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN House of Assembly Stuart Electricity Generation Mr VAN HOLST PELLEKAAN (Stuart) (14:41): Again, my question is for the Minister for Energy. Having had 24 hours to check, can the minister advise the house whether the APR TM2500 diesel generators the government is installing in suburban Adelaide are the same as the APR TM2500 diesel generators that were used in Tasmania and exceeded Australian emission standards? The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS House of Assembly West Torrens Minister for Finance Minister for State Development Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy Electricity Generation The Hon. A. KOUTSANTONIS (West Torrens—Treasurer, Minister for Finance, Minister for State Development, Minister for Mineral Resources and Energy) (14:41): Yes, I have checked; they are not, they were a generation earlier. The shadow minister is attempting to compare a VL Calais with a current model Calais. They have very different emission profiles. The generators that were used in Tasmania were an older generation and had a smaller output, approximately 25 megawatts. The new generation that we have is a 30.7 megawatt output and has different emission standards.
