SYNERGY — GENERATION UNITS
783. Hon Dr STEVE THOMAS to the minister representing the
Minister for Energy:
I refer to page 71 of Synergy's
2020–21 annual report tabled yesterday, which has plant,
property and equipment listed at a capital value of $2.56 billion and a depreciation
and impairment cost of $1.91 billion, leaving a net value of $650 million. In relation to the Muja power
station, Collie A power station, Kwinana power station and Cockburn
power station generation units, I ask the following.
(1) What is the current capital
value recorded by Synergy for each unit?
(2) What is the listed depreciation
and impairment value applied by Synergy to each of those units?
Hon
ALANNAH MacTIERNAN replied:
I thank the member for the question,
but I ask him to reflect on the quantum of detail that is required in it. Quite
understandably, the Minister for Energy has said that it is not possible to
provide the information requested in the time required and therefore the member
is asked to place it on notice.
