The International Energy Agency has reviewed Australia''s progress and recommends that it continues to strengthen its policies and long-term plans to ensure it meets its targets. Today, Australia is a major exporter of both fossil fuels and the critical minerals used in many clean energy technologies.
Australia stands at a crucial juncture on its path to sustainable energy transformation. Aiming to achieve a target of 82% of electricity from renewable sources by 2030, the Australian government has formulated a series of policies and measures, including an increase in the installation scale of photovoltaic power generation.
Significant investments will be needed for the clean-energy transition and building the infrastructure necessary to expand the domestic resource base. This review analyses the energy-policy challenges facing Australia and provides critiques and recommendations for further policy improvements. Published November 2012. Licence CC BY 4.0.
Since the last IEA review in 2015, Canada has made a series of enterprising international and domestic commitments to put the country on a path towards transforming its energy system, including a target to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 40‑45% by 2030 from 2005 levels and to reach net zero emissions by 2050.

Since the 2016 IEA in-depth review of Turkey, the guiding principles of Turkish energy policy continue to be market reform and energy security. Rapid economic and population growth in the past two decades have not only driven strong growth in energy demand, but also an associated increase in import dependency.
The Australian Energy Statistics is the authoritative and official source of energy statistics for Australia to support decision making, and help understand how our energy supply and use is changing. It is updated each year and consists of detailed historical energy consumption, production and trade statistics and balances. This edition
Long duration storage technologies will play a key role in maintaining the security and reliability of Australia''s energy system as more renewables are brought
Energy storage secures and stabilises energy supply, and services and cross-links the electricity, gas, industrial and transport sectors. It works on and off the grid, in passenger and freight

Fluence and four other energy storage-related companies active in the German market recently commissioned a report analysing the projected need for energy storage on the country''s grid. Authored by consultancy Frontier Economics, it found that with a supportive policy framework in place, Germany''s capacity of deployed storage
The recent energy crisis demonstrated the central role played by policy response in Europe and across the world. While more effort is still needed to support demand-side flexibility and align with the Net Zero Scenario, a number of measures were implemented across geographies to expand coverage and scope.
These policies carry the potential to interlink storage with broader energy transition policies, a link that the Australian electricity market regulation is currently lacking. In its 2019 Market Directive 2019/944 ( EU, 2019 ), the European Union has established common rules for energy storage by 2021.
