Australian Energy Resources Assessment - interim update July 2016

Created 16/10/2025

Updated 16/10/2025

This report is a partial update of the national assessment series of Australia's energy resources, which was first released in 2010. This interim release provides an overview of Australia's identified and potential fossil energy resources: oil, gas, coal, uranium and thorium. It focuses on resource quantities. A full updated version of AERA will be released in December 2016. It will add hydro, solar, wind, geothermal, bioenergy and ocean energy in conjunction with the Australian Renewable Energy Agency, along with energy resource market information from the Office of Chief Economist. AERA provides the crucial information and data for comparing energy commodities and reviewing resources available in Australia and the world. In turn, this information can be used while considering resources and energy policies.
