The top graph is South Australia’s energy grid. The bottom is Queensland’s. Yellow is solar, green is wind, orange is gas, purple is imports, and black is coal.
Over the last week, Queensland used 27.3% renewable power, and South Australia used 81.4%. Source: https://explore.openelectricity.org.au/energy/au/

Something worth mentioning, at least according to the site you linked, $/Mwh SA $99.44 & QLD $214.46 at the time I’m writing this. So SA’s power is also generated at half the cost (if I’m understanding it correctly).
Good point! A lot of politicians think supporting the economy means supporting coal, but this proves solar and wind are best for the economy.
the economy is just rich peoples money, and coal is how those people got rich …
