Northern Territory grid · community impact

Based on last week's Northern Territory grid mix (avg 640 gCO₂/kWh), Darwin's 150 solar systems typically avoid around 0.73 tonnes of CO₂ every hour during peak generation.

Darwin ranks 20th in Northern Territory for solar installations — in the middle tier of 46 postcodes tracked by the Clean Energy Regulator across the state. New installations eased in the past 12 months (8 systems, 11% below the previous year), a natural slowdown after earlier periods of stronger uptake.

Collectively, Darwin's 150 solar systems avoid an estimated 1,173 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 559 cars from the road. This is estimated using Northern Territory's average grid emissions intensity of 640 gCO₂/kWh, sourced from OpenElectricity, applied to an average system size of 9kW.
