How we checked this
Checked on October 17, 2026. The cited source supports part of this claim, but not all of it.
The article reports the generation and storage plan in the sentence after a Daily Advertiser attribution, but it does not explicitly credit that outlet for this point.
Confirmed in the source:
- IREN plans to contract new generation and storage projects to add supply to the grid and cover Redbank's load.
We could not confirm this from the cited source:
- The plan to contract new generation and storage was reported by The Daily Advertiser; the article does not explicitly attribute this sentence to that outlet.
That does not mean it is false — only that this source does not establish it, as of the date above. If we find a source that settles it, we will re-check and update this page.
