There is planned to be a protest about the closure of Australia's
largest planned solar plant near Mildura with loss of 100 jobs this
Friday lunchtime.
Solar Systems was placed under voluntary administration on 7 September
2009 placing the Midlura heliostat project and the jobs of two-thirds
of the workforce at risk.

Solar Systems has effectively moved part of its head office to Dallas
following the appointment of the Dallas-based Mike Childers as CEO. It
is possibly destined, like the solar thermal developer Ausra, to move
its headquarters to the US in pursuit of opportunities in a market that
is growing rapidly because of strong federal and state subsidies.
