Australia has an abundance of solar, wind, wave and other clean energy sources. Driving innovation in clean technologies is a major element of the Clean Energy Future Plan.
From Andrew Bolt
The Gillard Government shows a wonderful solar power facility at White Cliffs to symbolise our future.
Problem is:
The solar plant is now closed but it has earned a national award that will see it preserved as a piece of alternative energy heritage.
Reason for the closure? The town got connected to the grid, and coal-fired power is cheaper. And it stays on at night.
Is this our future - wind generator graveyard in Hawaii . It seemed like a good idea at the time.
