| Summary |
Focuses on Australian energy accounts in physical units. The accounts include six major energy categories: petroleum, coal, electricity, uranium, biomass (wood and bagasse), and other renewable resources such as wind and solar energy. Three major accounts, namely stocks, flows and residuals in physical units, describe the various aspects of energy resources, its production, conversion and consumption, as well as residuals discharged into the natural environment |
