Sound's like taxpayers money going straight to laundry washed and sent out clean

😂😂😂

Since this has been Sssssuch a successful project and case study on renewables, I wonder whether BOWEN will come to the rescue with MORE government funding to salvage this FAILED business model.

What a dystopian picture. Imagine the animals displaced for this, and it all goes to landfill in 10 years.

Coz solar is not sustainable unless government props them up.
