Based on last week's Victoria grid mix (avg 980 gCO₂/kWh), Canterbury's 579 solar systems typically avoid around 4.34 tonnes of CO₂ every hour during peak generation.

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

Canterbury ranks 319th in Victoria for solar installations — in the middle tier of 713 postcodes tracked by the Clean Energy Regulator across the state. New installations eased in the past 12 months (44 systems, 28% below the previous year), a natural slowdown after earlier periods of stronger uptake.

Collectively, Canterbury's 579 solar systems avoid an estimated 6,934 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 3,302 cars from the road. This is estimated using Victoria's average grid emissions intensity of 980 gCO₂/kWh, sourced from OpenElectricity, applied to an average system size of 9kW.
