Have been catching bits and pieces of solar news here in Arizona. The 2nd largest PV installation in the world is in Springerville (3 or 4 MW.... I think the largest is in Italy).... and I did see an interesting news release about a planned thermal solar project somewhere around here. Not the size given in the Australian project, but I'll believe that one when I see it built.
Anyway, checking around (Bloomberg.com, etc.) it looks like that Australia solar thermal project is being run by EVM.AX (yahoo system stock symbols) a publicly traded australian company. Market cap is too small for this project, but interesting anyway. Also ran across eil.ax, http://quote.bloomberg.com/apps/quote?ticker=EIL:AU which definitely fits my goals for a biofuel-related publicly traded investment, although it also is too small for this particularly project.
