Hmmm... aparently others know better then the owners of the plant..

via De_flieger; ....they discuss some of the reasons behind the plant closure ($6-$7 million/month in losses) and how the carbon tax isnt a significant factor.
Repeat - reasons given by the company for plant closing...

"...review of the plant has revealed it would not be profitable in the short term, and its long-term viability would be negatively affected by increasing energy costs and the carbon tax..."
