Elmore ranks 499th in Victoria out of 713 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset, with 175 registered systems to date. Growth has been strong, with 12 new systems installed in the past 12 months — a 71% increase on the previous year, making Elmore one of Victoria's faster-growing solar postcodes.
Collectively, Elmore's 175 solar systems avoid an estimated 2,096 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 998 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.
