Australia's main electricity market will have the technical capability to handle as much as three-quarters of supply from renewable energy as soon as 2025.

“Australia has the technical capability to operate a power system where three-quarters of our energy at times comes from renewable energy resources," Audrey Zibelman, AEMO's chief executive, said.
