Australia solar generation divided by wind generation for six jurisdictions with wind output; 2024.
Six Australian jurisdictions with non-zero wind output are ranked by solar generation relative to wind generation in 2024. Each ratio divides solar gigawatt-hours by wind gigawatt-hours from the same official source. Queensland ranks first at 5.36 times, followed by New South Wales at 2.66 times. The Northern Territory is excluded because its recorded wind generation was zero, making the ratio undefined.
| Rank | Entry | Value | Period |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Queensland | 5.36x | 2024 |
| 2 | New South Wales | 2.66x | 2024 |
| 3 | Western Australia | 1.30x | 2024 |
| 4 | Victoria | 0.73x | 2024 |
| 5 | South Australia | 0.73x | 2024 |
| 6 | Tasmania | 0.21x | 2024 |

Evidence: Supports wind and solar generation used to calculate ratios for six jurisdictions with non-zero wind output.
The Northern Territory is not assigned an infinite or artificial ratio because the recorded wind denominator is zero. The ACT is included with New South Wales in the source frame.
Solar generation is divided by wind generation for each jurisdiction with a non-zero wind value. The resulting ratios are sorted from highest to lowest.
