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

Postcode 2899 ranks 326th in New South Wales for solar installations — in the middle tier of 721 postcodes tracked by the Clean Energy Regulator across the state. 74 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, Postcode 2899's 865 solar systems avoid an estimated 8,351 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 3,977 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.
