Birdsville Geothermal Power Station

Australia's only geothermal (wet) power station in Birdsville, western Queensland, provides approximately one quarter of the town's energy supply, reducing diesel consumption by about 160 000 litres per year, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 430 tonnes, equivalent to 8.6 million black balloons. Ergon Energy is currently exploring options for a new geothermal power station that may provide all of Birdsville's power needs.
