The Advertiser: Five bids to create solar city :
"Five consortia have lodged expressions of interest to create energy-efficient communities in South Australia under the Government's $75 million Solar Cities initiative."
Flinders University in particular has pioneered solar and alternative energies. It's good to see we are now in the position to promote solar energy as a state. I believe the South West of France has also made some good inroads into solar energy. To make this our aim from here on in and to encourage people to get involved makes good use of our resources and provides an alternative model to the one we have. Surviving and growing is about flexibility and alternatives. It's not a bad idea to have "pioneer" villages for whatever you are trialling. I think it would really engender curiosity and commitment if people could be part of a concept which they endorse. Like our artists village down south or Mawson Lakes and originally West Lakes. The all test new concepts and have become a very real part of our community.
