In Q3 2026, grid-scale batteries supplied 8% of Australia's National Electricity Market (NEM) evening-peak power, surpassing gas-fired plants which provided 5.1%. This marks the first quarter where battery storage outperformed gas in peak generation. Renewables also hit a record 44.3% of total generation, with solar and hydro increasing significantly while wind declined. The shift reflects growing electricity demand and changing energy production patterns, with battery usage rising sharply from the previous year. Wholesale electricity prices fell 27%, and batteries influenced nearly half of dispatch intervals, signaling a major transition in Australia's energy mix.
