That's great but NZ has a huge amount of hydro power which means it is playing on easy mode.
NZ really should be at 100% renewable already. NZ has more or less the same situation as Uruguay but Uruguay is already at 100%. The hydro already exists, all that is needed are a few solar panels and turbines and the job is done.
Of course Australia also needs to up it's game. 70% shouldn't be a once off for Australia, it should be the average for the year.

Totally agree. Our government declared a climate emergency last year but there is not a push for solar on roofs with a subsidy or alternative power
