A man has suffered burn injuries while working at a beleaguered power station in Queensland. The contractor was working at the controversial Callide Power Station in Mount Murchison on Friday evening when he sustained burns to his feet while working in the boilerhouse. He was taken hospital where he is receiving treatment. The man was working on the overhaul of unit B1, one of the plants four generating units. In response to the incident, all work was stopped on the unit B1 boiler.
In a separate incident on Friday, CS Energy took generating unit C3 offline to “investigate a technical fault in one of its battery chargers”. No one was injured.
