"Australia’s largest off-grid solar power station is set to be built at remote Coober Pedy in South Australia’s far north. Australian Environment Minister Peter Garrett and South Australian Premier Mike Rann announced the $7.1 million project at the 3rd International Solar Cities Congress in Adelaide. When it’s completed at the end of 2009, it will generate about 1860 megawatt hours a year – 13 per cent of Coober Pedy’s total electricity requirements."
