There ’s a joke to be made about jumbo priapic symbols built on Australian sheep farms , but not before my coffee . The 3,280 - foot tall solar towboat idea first chuck out around a few years ago is on it ’s elbow room to actually happening , now that land in the Australian outback has been batten down . When finished , the tower will efficaciously work like a lamp chimney , collecting solar energy to warm airwave that then rises at speeds of thirty - five mph to spin a serial publication of turbine that generate electrical energy . So , kind of like a wind farm without the demand for systematically secure kite weather .
building wo n’t begin until 2006 , but Roger Davey , chairperson of EnviroMission Limited , phone the purchase of the land a “ very big step ” towards getting the project underway . Who among us does n’t recall the agitation of their first sheep farm purchase ?
