A 150-megawatt solar thermal power plant has been secured for Port Augusta in South Australia, State Premier Jay Weatherill has announced.
Construction of the $650 million plant will start in 2018.
Aurora facts:

150-megawatt solar thermal power with eight hours of storage

Plant will deliver 495 gigawatt hours of power annually, or 5 per cent of SA's energy needs

Equivalent to powering more than 90,000 homes

Located 30 kilometres north of Port Augusta

Company says it is "completely emission free"

Mr Weatherill said the Aurora Solar Energy Project would be ready to go in 2020 and would supply 100 per cent of the State Government's needs.
The Government will pay a maximum of $78 per megawatt hour.
Mr Weatherill said the solar thermal plant was "the biggest of its kind in the world"

good on them...

That could have been us if management hadn't missed the boat. Our boat is sinking fast or possibly it has already sunk and we don't realize it yet, as we're trapped below deck with a few hours air.

Numbers would include a battery do not that much different to EVM idea. But the STP is tried and tested vs our SUT.

SUT - solar updraft tower
Stp - Solar thermal plant
