Portland ranks 464th in Victoria out of 713 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset, with 214 registered systems to date. 11 new systems were installed in the past 12 months, a 10% increase on the previous year — steady growth consistent with continued community uptake.
Collectively, Portland's 214 solar systems avoid an estimated 2,563 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 1,220 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.
