Australian Capital Territory grid · community impact

Based on last week's Australian Capital Territory grid mix (avg 790 gCO₂/kWh), Weston Creek's 7,117 solar systems typically avoid around 43.01 tonnes of CO₂ every hour during peak generation.

Grid intensity data: Open Electricity (openelectricity.org.au) · 7-day average · updates monthly

Weston Creek is one of Australian Capital Territory's strongest solar communities, ranking 2nd in the state — ahead of 93% of all Australian Capital Territory postcodes tracked by the Clean Energy Regulator. New installations eased in the past 12 months (586 systems, 13% below the previous year), a natural slowdown after earlier periods of stronger uptake.

The combined impact is substantial: Weston Creek's solar community avoids an estimated 68,707 tonnes of CO₂ every year — equivalent to taking 32,718 cars off the road or powering around 13,741 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.
