Alice Springs ranks 17th 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 (2 systems, 33% below the previous year), a natural slowdown after earlier periods of stronger uptake.
Collectively, Alice Springs's 179 solar systems avoid an estimated 1,400 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 667 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.
