Fossilised: Revenue will fall as renewable energy takes over and input costs burn up profitability
Fossil fuel generators supply most of Australia's electricity, as coal is the central fuel powering Australia. These generators supply electricity through wholesale markets, which is then retailed to consumers and businesses. These generators also supply electricity directly to energy-intensive industries. Power plants run on black coal, brown coal, natural gas and diesel. Black and brown coal-fired power stations are often run continuously to provide baseload power, while natural gas stations can be fired up quickly to provide peaking power during demand spikes.
Generators use fossil fuels like coal, gas and oil to drive steam-producing turbines that generate electricity.
This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry's key players and their market shares.
