A new report by the Pitt & Sherry and Australia Institute CEDEX, now incorporates rooftop solar PV generation data from the Australian Energy Market Operator and the Australian Photovoltaic Institute. The report shows various graphs which include the total electricity generation in Australia by fuel type, as well as changes in demand across the nation and from each state over the past seven years. The data also shows that electricity generated from black coal and carbon emission levels have been in decline since the summer of 2009, with only a small rise in both over the last year. In addition, the report includes an interactive map showing how much power is being produced at different points on the grid based upon the type of energy source used.
