Lyons ranks 15th in Australian Capital Territory for solar installations — in the middle tier of 28 postcodes tracked by the Clean Energy Regulator across the state. Growth has been strong, with 87 new systems installed in the past 12 months — a 21% increase on the previous year, making Lyons one of Australian Capital Territory's faster-growing solar postcodes.

The combined impact is substantial: Lyons's solar community avoids an estimated 11,141 tonnes of CO₂ every year — equivalent to taking 5,305 cars off the road or powering around 2,228 average Australian homes with clean electricity. This is estimated using Australian Capital Territory's average grid emissions intensity of 790 gCO₂/kWh, sourced from OpenElectricity, applied to an average system size of 9kW.
