GPE NEMLog data shows the rolling seven-day mean crossed 20% on April 15, 2018, 30% on Nov. 13, 2019, and 40% on Sept. 19, 2022. While the mark has now passed the 50% milestone, it remains well short of the Australian government’s target of 82% renewable electricity generation in the NEM by 2030.

A bit of a puff piece with a misleading title. We're moving in the right direction but still a long way from the 80℅ sustained target.
