[aussiefarmer]

Nope to all those, but Nanjim is especially cold, though in the right direction, and Manpa is warm

 

[shakergt]

Jenolan caves hydro system

 

[cml]

also hot (and something for me to look up )

Having read an article on it - very interesting!

 

[Tathradj]

Refrigeration. ?

 

[cml]

Nope, although refrigeration benefited from it

 

[shakergt]

Might be going off in the wrong direction here Tamworth. First place in australia to have electricity

 

[Manpa]

Desalination Plant at our base in Antarctica?

 

[shakergt]

in addition to my previous response I was just thinking that it could be Barton and White. They where the first electricity supplier in Australia

 

[cml]

ShakerGT, you're on the right track, but wrong place; Manpa, too far in the right direction

 

[shakergt]

I know I'm on the right track. It has got me so far but I just had a brain wave. Talking of waves it's not the star of the south. Australia's first offshore wind farm located in bass straight. :Y:

 

[Manpa]

Victorian hydro Lake Glenmaggie, Lake Willim Hovell and Eildon Pondage.

 

[Manpa]

Victorian hydro Lake Glenmaggie, Lake Willim Hovell and Eildon Pondage or Vic Desal in Wonthaggi

 

[shakergt]

I know we are both so close manpa

 

[Manpa]

I know we are both so close manpa

I hope so, the clues are thin on the ground, somewhere between thehigh country and the South Pole, maybe Tassie and the little hydro at Cataract Gorge or in the tassie highlands.
