THURSDAY 25.10.2012: Our final stopover was at the Lake Liddell Recreation Area. Just up the road from the Freedom Camp Liddell Power Station is a coal-powered thermal power station with four 500 megawatts (670,000 hp) GEC (UK) steam driven turbo alternators for a combined capacity of 2,000 megawatts (2,700,000 hp). Commissioned between 1971 and 1973, the station is located at Lake Liddell near Muswellbrook, in the Hunter Valley, New South Wales, Australia and is owned and operated by Macquarie Generation, a statutory corporation of the Government of New South Wales.
