Alice Springs could be home to two major solar energy generation farms by this time next year. Alice Solar City general manager Brian Elmer said the growing program should have both the Alice Springs Airport and Ilparpa solar farms up and running by the end of 2009. After a successful year for the program's residential and commercial arias, this year seems set to continue the progress of the project. Solar Cities will also be involved in the design and construction of an unusual form of harnessing solar energy at the Araluen Arts Centre. The centre would use parabolic solar troughs that heat oil.
