"A Victorian Government seed grant of $50 million will help deliver the world’s largest photovoltaic (PV) solar power station to be built in northern Victoria, in a win for the state’s environment, innovation and economy, the Premier John Brumby announced. Mr Brumby welcomed the decision by TRUenergy to invest $290 million in renewable energy company Solar Systems to build the 154MW solar power station, with construction due to begin in 2009, once the site has been finalised.“This investment by TRUenergy follows on from the $50 million contribution by the Victorian Government and $79.5 million from the Commonwealth in 2006 towards this leading-edge solar power station,” Mr Brumby said."
