Bendigo energy push, 28 Jun, 2010 Bendigo Advertiser, THE Bendigo Sustainability Group is calling on the federal government to look at a new renewable energy resource for Central Victoria that could be a first for Australia…… The group sent an email to Prime Minister Julia Gillard after her appointment, calling on her to stop a deal between Trade Minister Simon Crean and the Vietnamese government for the export of Victorian brown coal.

Instead, the group is proposing Bendigo become home to a solar thermal base load plant that it believes is the future of renewable energy in Australia.
