Australia continues to reduce its dependence on coal as renewable energy reaches record levels of electricity generation. Investment in batteries, rooftop solar, and utility-scale renewable projects is accelerating the country's energy transition.
The Australian government aims to establish a more diverse energy mix to ensure that the country can be energy self-sufficient in the years to come while supporting a green transition.
In 2025, 42.7% of Australia's electricity generation came from renewable sources, a significant increase from 38.9% in 2024.
The battery storage industry is also taking off, with a 260% rise in home battery sales in 2025.
Australia is currently the third-largest importer of Chinese batteries after Germany and the United States.
