The goal of GC3 is to provide the community information on the progress of coal utilisation. As coal is an extremely important component of the world's energy mix and will continue to be for future generations, it is essential that coal utilisation processes continue to develop to ensure its role in a sustainable future.

The focus of information will be on local (CQ region) development and initiatives relevant to coal and its uses. The large stake that the CQ region has in the continued use and expansion of coal technology cannot be understated.

Newsletter

A quarter-yearly newsletter will be produced by the centre that will contain industry leaders opinions on coal and its associated technologies and supporting local, national and world initiatives. Your feedback is encouraged and should you wish to contribute please contact the centre.

Announcements

The Gladstone Centre for Clean Coal opened its doors and began operating in 2002. I took over the reins of Chair in the following year. During this period we have seen interest in the impact of the use of coal on the environment grow steadily and in recent years explode into the global phenomenon that it is today. GC3 has enjoyed good sponsorship along the way and I thank all these benefactors for their generosity. Since the Global Financial Crisis, hit sponsorship has declined to a point where we can no longer continue so we must now leave this work to other organisations to carry on. It is with considerable melancholy that we now wind up operations and close our doors. Thank you for your support over the last 8 years.
