An interesting idea. I believe that coal will be the backbone of our power generation for some time and using solar to work with it not agin it is the way to go.
But you were naughty omitting the last para:
Funding for the project includes a $70 million contribution from CS Energy and a contribution of more than $34 million from the Australian Government. CS Energy has received support from the Queensland Government through a contribution of $35.4 million to CS Energy’s Carbon Reduction Program, which has enabled the company to direct funds to the Kogan Creek Solar Boost Project.
So the project is 50% funded by grant money, our money. We are a looong way from "free" power being affordable.
