AGL operates the country’s largest energy portfolio, and it has a focus on investing in renewable energy. AGL had planned to close the Liddle plant by 2022 as part of the company-wide plan to exit the coal-fired power generation business completely by 2050.

The company said: “AGL is assessing the proposal, but no assurance can be given that any transaction will result from the offer. AGL will provide further updates to the market as appropriate.”
