  Ember do a good summary of their current trajectory: > Australia’s largest source of clean electricity is solar (18%), which has doubled since 2020. Australia has the world’s highest solar generation per capita, over seven times the global average. > Australia’s joint share of wind and solar (29%) is almost double the global average (15%), though it remains below peers like the United Kingdom (36%) and Spain (43%). > Australia relied on fossil fuels for 65% of its electricity in 2024, with 46% coming from coal.
