How We Source Our Electricity
Tasmania is practically self-sufficient on renewable energy, with 98% of its electricity generated from renewable sources, followed by South Australia at 58%
The ACT has also achieved its 100% renewable electricity target, by sourcing this energy via a combination of funding wind farms around Australia to feed energy into the national grid to match the amount of electricity Canberra consumes, and solar power generators in Canberra itself.
