079 - New renewable energy power stations in Australia

An interesting data set from the Clean Energy Regulator showing the new power stations that were accredited in 2016 and the first half of 2017, along with new power stations that are set to be built, shown by state and technology type. Enjoy!

061 - Emissions intensity of new NEM generators

The Australian Electricity Market Operator has a database called the National Transmission Network Development Plan (NTNDP) database - the NTNDP is basically a report that looks at what future grid wires might look  like. There are some detailed, fascinating data points underneath this report.

The chart below shows emissions intensity for new power stations - measured in the tonnes of greenhouse gases emitted for every megawatt hour of generation.

060 - Thermal efficiency

The Australian Electricity Market Operator has a database called the National Transmission Network Development Plan (NTNDP) database - the NTNDP is basically a report that looks at what future grid wires might look  like. There are some detailed, fascinating data points underneath this report.

The chart below shows the thermal efficiency for new power stations in Australia - it's measured in HHV - "High heating value". This is, basically, how much you get out, relative to what you put in.

059 - Scope 1 emissions intensity for

The Australian Electricity Market Operator has a database called the National Transmission Network Development Plan (NTNDP) database - the NTNDP is basically a report that looks at what future grid wires might look  like. There are some detailed, fascinating data points underneath this report.

The chart below shows emissions intensity - the numbers of tonnes of greenhouse gases that are emitted for every megawatt hour of generation from power stations - by state, and by individual power plants.

043 - Minutes of battery storage in Australia, by technology and verification status

The Energy Storage Exchange's storage database is pretty big - below, I've extracted technology type and verification status for Australia's energy storage.
