Moorina Power Station
The Moorina Power Station is a decommissioned hydroelectric power station, located near the hamlet of Moorina in far north-eastern Tasmania, Australia. Opened in 1909 and decommissioned in 2008, at the time of its closure, Moorina Power Station was the oldest operating electricity generator in Australia.〔
==Concept and construction==
In 1900, the Pioneer Tin Mining Co. was formed to extract tin (cassiterite) from Tertiary alluvial deposits found in abundance in the far north-east of Tasmania, at the town of Pioneer. At the time there was only one dedicated power station in Tasmania (Duck Reach, near Launceston) which was entirely devoted to street lighting and the general needs of the city of Launceston. In addition, "Water shortages for sluicing and the consumption of of firewood per annum for steam raising had, by 1907, led to the proposal to develop the Moorina Scheme to provide both electricity and sluicing water". The station itself is reported by the Tasmanian Hydro-Electric Commission website as having opened in 1906, but REGA reports this as 1907. Construction of the station proceeded during 1908 with and the first machine was commissioned in March 1909.
