Mostly coal-fired power plants, black coal outside Victoria, where dirty brown coal (lignite) is used. There a considerable level of hydroelectric energy utilisation mainly in Tasmania, which has only one coal-fired power station. There are no nuclear power plants. Wind energy is becoming more important with small-scale solar plants coming onstream as well, although "alternative" sources of enegy amount to only a small proportion of Australian enegy needs.
