The report provides a technical (bottom-up) review of key emissions reduction technologies and sector-wide projections of deployment for those technologies in the context of four different emissions pathways for Australia. Pathways explore the impact of low and ambitious energy productivity levels across the sector, and aggressive and conservative deployment of intermittent renewable and dispatchable low emissions technologies. Analyses include economic modelling of Australia's energy system to 2030 (and often to 2050), including a focus on:

• generation mix over time ;
• the role of battery storage;
• consumer energy bills;
• changes in electricity demand by industry type; and
• transport emissions and vehicle uptake (including electric vehicles).
