With the focus turning to renewable energy, the Aurora solar plant will provide 100% of the state\u2019s electricity needs by 2020.<\/p>\n<p>The $650m, 150-megawatt plant uses mirrors and solar power to heat molten salt and generate electricity, and was approved this week by the state government. It will be built by American company SolarReserve, and is expected to create 650 local jobs during construction. It is completely emission free and displaces 200,000 tonnes of Co2 each year.<\/p>\n<p>South Australian acting energy minister Chris Picton called the project a welcome development for the state.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s fantastic that SolarReserve has received development approval to move forward with this world-leading project that will deliver clean, dispatchable renewable energy to supply our electrified rail, hospitals and schools,&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is a significant step in the development of the Aurora solar thermal power station, which will bring clean power generation technology to South Australia,\u201d<\/p>\n<p>ISO 50001 ensures you achieve energy efficiency, whatever the nature of your business!
