Stationary energy is the fuel a business or household burns for itself on-site (i.e. not transport). This includes industrial furnaces, diesel-powered forklifts and excavators (not registered for road use), gas heaters, and portable generators.
(It technically also includes fuel burned for electricity generation, but Australian governments report those emissions separately as 'Electricity'.)
Mt CO₂-e = megatonnes (million tonnes) of carbon dioxide equivalent
In the year to March 2026, stationary energy emissions in Australia were 97.3 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (Mt CO2-e).
This was down 0.2% on the previous year.
