6,534 solar installations registered with the Clean Energy Regulator · ranked top 15% in Australian Capital Territory · data current as at 2026-05-15
Based on last week's Australian Capital Territory grid mix (avg 790 gCO₂/kWh), Postcode 2913's 6,534 solar systems typically avoid around 39.49 tonnes of CO₂ every hour during peak generation.

Postcode 2913 sits in the top third of Australian Capital Territory for solar uptake, ranking 3rd in the state out of 28 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset. New installations eased in the past 12 months (477 systems, 18% below the previous year), a natural slowdown after earlier periods of stronger uptake.
The combined impact is substantial: Postcode 2913's solar community avoids an estimated 63,079 tonnes of CO₂ every year — equivalent to taking 30,038 cars off the road or powering around 12,616 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.
