Origin Energy have announced they're now seeking approval to close the Eraring Power Station in August 2025 seven years of schedule.
The Hunter Valley facility is Australia's biggest coal-fired power plant.
It's the company's only coal-fired generator, meaning it will rely on gas and renewables for power from now on.
It comes as the State Government announces $100 billion worth in
expressions of interest for the Hunter-Central Coast Renewable Zone.
AGL announced last week its Bayswater Power Station could close as early as 2030 and no later than 2033.
Liddell is already set to shut next year.
