Horsley Park ranks 394th in New South Wales for solar installations — in the middle tier of 721 postcodes tracked by the Clean Energy Regulator across the state. 53 new systems were added in the past 12 months, with growth of 6% on the previous year — typical of a maturing market where most interested households have already installed.
Collectively, Horsley Park's 636 solar systems avoid an estimated 6,140 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 2,924 cars from the road. This is estimated using New South Wales's average grid emissions intensity of 790 gCO₂/kWh, sourced from OpenElectricity, applied to an average system size of 9kW.
