    They are tyring to make this sound like it is a good thing.

    How many tonnes of concrete poured & how much CO2...oh that right & it needs to be wired into the grid from somewhere beyond the black stump...that can only ne cheap...How much to remove the concrete at end of use??

    Huge concrete pour paves way for 122 turbines at Australia’s largest wind project

    The concrete foundations have been laid for all 122 of the turbines that will make up the first 756MW of the massive Golden Plains wind farm in Victoria

    The Golden Plains Wind Farm is a state-significant project that will be Australia’s largest wind farm to date and power more than 765,000 homes (sometime - but certainly not all the time..... This $3 billion plus project is a landmark clean energy project for Victoria and Australia...which needs to be back up by coal fired power stations.

    fyi - Laying the foundations for a wind power project involves laying down an impressive amount of concrete. This can be as much as 1000 tons of concrete.

    Think about that number 122,000 tons of concrete.......moved using battery power...if not why not????
