Needed to create these graphs for something else. Pretty interesting though so thought I would link them here.
Temperature anomaly data shows a clear upwards trend, as I am sure every county has.
Source Australia 2026, Bureau of Meteorology Website: https://www.bom.gov.au/cgi-bin/climate/change/timeseries.cgi
Weighted area monthly average min and max temperatures across Australia since 1910, data as at Jan 2026. The anomaly value is calculated as the difference between an average monthly temperature between 1961-1990 and the comparison month. So an anomaly of one degree Celsius at a single weather station is a one degree difference between the current months average min/max temperature and the average for that station/month between 1961-1990. Then the overall Australian figure is a land area weighted average of these anomalies
24 hr view shows electricity production across an average day. Since it is summer there is a lot more solar than usual, however you can clearly see battery and wind helping in the most expensive 5pm-8pm time slot which is good for renewables.

Does not show battery charging figures during day. https://explore.openelectricity.org.au/energy/nem/?range=28d&interval=30m&view=time-of-day&group=Simplified
The smooth electricity supply chart shows the trend in generation source over the last few decades. You can see the trend in renewables, however interestingly you see a decrease in Gas use. Is this because of the price recently? The impact of it being a on demand source? idk
