The government is "loaning" them 1.52 billion...

The link doesn't even say that it is projected to cost that much. And there's definitely no guarantee it really will.

It doesn't go into specifics on what that entails, but I'd be very very surprised if it doesn't require a complete replacement of the stacks. Like as you seemed to be aware of, is where the carbon issue is.

I'm not saying it's impossible. I'm saying the carbon costs of refurbishing are going to be similar to the carbon costs of a new one.

Maybe I wasn't clear, I thought we were talking about environmental effects and not money.
