- An older Australia, with less babies and a service based economy. That's the glimpse forty years into Australia's future provided by the Treasurer in the Intergenerational Report.
But households are predicted to enjoy cheaper power through the energy transition, and the transformation through the AI boom is predicted to be profound.
The forecast for Australia in 2066 also points to slower growth, mounting pressure from an ageing population, and growing intergenerational pressures, particularly around housing and wealth.
Treasurer Jim Chalmers says incomes will be 55 per cent higher and living standards will be better.
Australia's population is expected to grow from 28 million today to 39.3m by 2065-2066. That's smaller than previously forecast, primarily due to a declining fertility rate.

- Australia's declining fertility rate has prompted discussion about the return of financial incentives to encourage more people to have children.
The latest Intergenerational Report released on Monday by Treasurer Jim Chalmers lays out how an aging population and falling birth rate would reshape Australia's economy over the next 40 years, with fertility expected to fall to just 1.34 children per woman by 2065.
The treasurer, however, has been hesitant to weigh in on people's personal choices.
"I do not and will not give free advice about these very personal decisions that [people] make about whether to start a family and when to start a family," he says.
Instead, Mr Chalmers says it is up to the government to make having children easier, pointing to childcare and extended paid parental leave as key policies.
