Australian Capital Territory grid · community impact

Based on last week's Australian Capital Territory grid mix (avg 790 gCO₂/kWh), Cook's 3,266 solar systems typically avoid around 19.74 tonnes of CO₂ every hour during peak generation.

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

Cook sits in the top third of Australian Capital Territory for solar uptake, ranking 8th in the state out of 28 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset. 204 new systems were added in the past 12 months, with growth of 3% on the previous year — typical of a maturing market where most interested households have already installed.

The combined impact is substantial: Cook's solar community avoids an estimated 31,530 tonnes of CO₂ every year — equivalent to taking 15,014 cars off the road or powering around 6,306 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.
