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

Grenfell ranks 528th in New South Wales out of 721 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset, with 196 registered systems to date. 4 new systems were added in the past 12 months, with growth of 0% on the previous year — typical of a maturing market where most interested households have already installed.

Collectively, Grenfell's 196 solar systems avoid an estimated 1,892 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 901 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.
