Pirie Favored Site for Northern Power Plant

Four key points favor Pirie as the location for a large Northern regional power station after SA Electricity Trust inspectors and town council members toured the area. Pirie is economically central, near transmission routes to the metropolis, and near the Smelters which could use waste steam. The project could exceed £1,000,000 with Osborne as a benchmark, and officials discussed site logistics, water supply, housing for workers, and future regional industry impact.
