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 last year, with only a small rise in both over the summer of 2009. Electricity generation from﻿ natural gas, rooftop solar, hydro, wind power and other renewables have﻿ risen over this period.
