3,025 solar installations registered with the Clean Energy Regulator · ranked top 25% in New South Wales · data current as at 2026-08-15
Based on last week's New South Wales grid mix (avg 790 gCO₂/kWh), Postcode 2315's 3,025 solar systems typically avoid around 18.28 tonnes of CO₂ every hour during peak generation.

Postcode 2315 sits in the top third of New South Wales for solar uptake, ranking 112th in the state out of 721 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset. 183 new systems were installed in the past 12 months, a 13% increase on the previous year — steady growth consistent with continued community uptake.
The combined impact is substantial: Postcode 2315's solar community avoids an estimated 29,203 tonnes of CO₂ every year — equivalent to taking 13,906 cars off the road or powering around 5,841 average Australian homes with clean electricity. 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.
