At the time of cache placement, construction of the test phase of the planned Whyalla concentrated solar thermal power station had begun.
Initially a pilot set-up of four dishes will be built to be used in trials and testing of concepts.
The long-term plan is for hundreds of dishes, each 500m² in area, in a 2km x 1km array at the city's northern entrance.
The cache is across the road from the area where the dishes will be constructed.
On 17/6/10 the scaffolding on which the dishes will be built was in place.
Sadly, government funding was withdrawn and the project is in limbo.
I guess the cache can remain in memory of what might have been . . .
