Australia can ensure India’s energy security: PM Malcolm Turnbull

Australia will be a reliable provider of coal, uranium, gas and renewable energy technology to ensure India has energy security as it grows into a regional power, Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said on the eve of his first visit to New Delhi.

“India is undergoing a dramatic economic transformation and our close partnership creates opportunities for both nations,” 62-year-old Turnbull said in a speech at the Sydney Institute.

He will arrive in New Delhi on Sunday on a four-day visit to India on the invitation of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Turnbull, who became Australia’s Prime Minister on September 15, 2015, said his first visit to India as Prime Minister is a chance to further co-operate across a wide range of sectors including energy, education and trade

PM Malcolm Turnbull commits to exporting coal, uranium and renewables to India

Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull will give India the assurance of providing coal, uranium, gas and renewable energy technology. The recommitment will come as Turnbull and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will meet in Delhi on April 10.

This will be the first visit by an Australian prime minister since Tony Abbott’s 2014 trip. The leaders of the two countries will also discuss negotiations concerning the free trade agreement. Both countries have found themselves in what is called a “stockwave” of their respective positions. As a result, talks of a trade between Australia and India have slowed recently.

Education Minister Simon Birmingham, along with a delegation of 27 university vice-chancellors and officials, will also be visiting the country. On the agenda will be an endeavour to strengthen Australia’s second largest export to India.

Turnbull lauded India in a speech he delivered at the Sydney Institute on Thursday, referring to the country as “a land of immense opportunity for Australia.” The prime minister also spoke about the educational services Australian universities will provide to as many as 400 million people by 2022. Turnbull will be visiting Papua New Guinea followed by India in a week-long trip.

In the last decade, trade between the two countries has enhanced by 100 percent to more than $20 billion. India’s economy, currently growing at 7 percent a year, is expected to come close to that of the United States by about 2050. "India is undergoing a dramatic economic transformation and our close partnership creates opportunities for both nations," Turnbull said.

Turnbull’s three-day visit to the Indian cities of Delhi and Mumbai will focus on concerns of energy, education and trade. With regards to energy, sources said Turnbull will discuss the Australian government’s support for the Adani Carmichael coal mine to be developed in the Galilee Basin in Queensland.

Turnbull will also reemphasise Australia’s commitment to provide uranium to India. The arrangement was set up by the Gillard government and finalised between Turnbull and Modi in November 2015. “India wants to provide energy security through a range of technologies, including nuclear, clean coal, natural gas and renewable energy. Australia is well placed to provide many of the raw materials, and some of the latest technology,” Turnbull said.

The two countries are currently endeavouring to sign a free trade agreement. Since the start of talks in 2011, there have as many as nine rounds of negotiations. The most one occurred in 2015.

Perfect reason for strengthening ties with Australian government as well as corporate entities.

They have the finest quality of uranium ores along with Kazakhstan.

We have good ties with them and after PM Modi's visit, it has further solidified.

India should sign a long-term deal with Australia to guarantee them a buyer while we should triple our nuclear power energy output. The faster we can get more power plants, the better our industries will prosper.

Relying too much on coal, that too peat rather than anthracite is dangerous for our environment.
