This is a pilot Solar power station out in Windorah I saw in 2008
I don't know how far it has progressed or even if it is generating any electricity
One of the things that annoy's me is the insistence that every thing must be Big.
Why can't smaller centers have their own power stations,be they Solar,Wind or any other method of producing power
What we have is a country criss crossed with ugly Towers and power lines that cost millions to erect and are susceptible to every thing from sabotage to natural disasters
Keep the big power stations to the major centers and give the smaller centers their own power stations.
Cheers
