The NEM is an interconnected network with electricity flowing continuously around it with any non-renewable electricity drawn by the ACT grid from NSW being fully offset, by 2020-21 (the 100% renewable electricity target year), by renewable electricity generated into the NEM by feed-in tariff supported generators located elsewhere in it.
The generation from the ACT’s feed-in tariff supported solar farms is fed directly into the ACT grid. Their output in each financial year is listed below.
| Solar farm | 2014-15 generation (MWh) | 2015-16 generation (MWh) | 2016-17 generation (MWh) | 2017-18 generation to Dec 31 (MWh) | 
| Royalla Solar Farm | 33,397 | 38,399 | 37,033 | 20,380 | 
| Maoneng Solar Park | 0 | 0 | 15,397 | 13,728 | 
| Williamsdale Solar Farm | 0 | 0 | 4,692 | 7,584 | 
Energy—generation capacity
(Question No 1321)
Mr Coe asked the Minister for Climate Change and Sustainability, upon notice, on 13 April 2018:
(1) What is the generation capacity of each of the generators that (a) currently hold or (b) will hold feed-in tariff entitlements.
(2) What was the (a) total electricity generation for each of the generators that currently hold feed-in tariff entitlements and (b) total paid for the electricity generated by generators that currently hold feed-in tariff entitlements, as per question on notice No 984, in the (a) 2013-14, (b) 2014-15, (c) 2015-16, (d) 2016-17 and (e) 2017-18 to date, financial years.
(3) What was the total ACT electricity consumption during the (a) 2007-08, (b) 2008-09, (c) 2009-10, (d) 2010-11, (e) 2011-12, (f) 2012-13, (g) 2013-14, (h) 2014-15, (i) 2015-16, (j) 2016-17 and (k) 2017-18 to date, financial years.
Mr Rattenbury: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:
(1) The capacities of the generators that have commenced feed-in tariff supported generation are given in answer 1319 part (1); the capacities of the generators that have yet to commence feed-in tariff supported generation are given in answer 1319 part (2).
(2) Table, below, shows generation by generators that have commenced feed-in tariff supported generation.
| Generator | 2013-14 (MWh) | 2014-15 (MWh) | 2015-16 (MWh) | 2016-17 (MWh) | 2017-18 to 31 Dec (MWh) |
