<P> Energy in Australia is the production in Australia of energy and electricity, for consumption or export . Energy policy of Australia describes the politics of Australia as it relates to energy . </P> <P> Australia is a net energy exporter, and was the fourth - highest coal producer in the world in 2009 . </P> <P> Historically--and until recent times--energy in Australia was sourced largely from coal and natural gas, however due to the increasing effects of global warming and human - induced climate change on the global environment, there has been a greater shift towards renewable energy such as solar power and wind power both in Australia and abroad . This in turn has led to a decrease in the demand of coal worldwide . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> </Th> <Th> Population million </Th> <Th> Prim . energy TWh </Th> <Th> Production TWh </Th> <Th> Export TWh </Th> <Th> Electricity TWh </Th> <Th> CO-emission Mt </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> 20.2 </Td> <Td> 1,347 </Td> <Td> 3,044 </Td> <Td> 1,672 </Td> <Td> 224.9 </Td> <Td> 354.4 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 2007 </Td> <Td> 21.1 </Td> <Td> 1,443 </Td> <Td> 3,364 </Td> <Td> 1,818 </Td> <Td> 237.1 </Td> <Td> 396.3 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 2008 </Td> <Td> 21.5 </Td> <Td> 1,513 </Td> <Td> 3,514 </Td> <Td> 1,942 </Td> <Td> 240.4 </Td> <Td> 397.5 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 2009 </Td> <Td> 22.1 </Td> <Td> 1,524 </Td> <Td> 3,613 </Td> <Td> 2,012 </Td> <Td> 244 </Td> <Td> 395 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> 22.5 </Td> <Td> 1,451 </Td> <Td> 3,613 </Td> <Td> 2,159 </Td> <Td> 227.0 </Td> <Td> 383.5 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 2012 </Td> <Td> 22.8 </Td> <Td> 1,429 </Td> <Td> 3,451 </Td> <Td> 2,089 </Td> <Td> 239.3 </Td> <Td> 396.8 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 2012R </Td> <Td> 23.1 </Td> <Td> 1,492 </Td> <Td> 3,691 </Td> <Td> 2,172 </Td> <Td> 236.3 </Td> <Td> 386.3 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> 2013 </Td> <Td> 23.3 </Td> <Td> 1,502 </Td> <Td> 4,000 </Td> <Td> 2,439 </Td> <Td> 234.3 </Td> <Td> 389.7 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Change 2004 - 10 </Td> <Td> 11.6% </Td> <Td> 7.8% </Td> <Td> 18.7% </Td> <Td> 29.1% </Td> <Td> 0.9% </Td> <Td> 8.2% </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td_colspan="7"> Mtoe = 11.63 TWh, Prim . energy includes energy losses . <P> 2012R = CO2 calculation criteria changed, numbers updated </P> </Td> </Tr> </Table>
