861 solar installations registered with the Clean Energy Regulator · ranked top 50% in Victoria · data current as at 2026-05-15
Based on last week's Victoria grid mix (avg 980 gCO₂/kWh), Wodonga's 861 solar systems typically avoid around 6.45 tonnes of CO₂ every hour during peak generation.

Wodonga ranks 268th 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 (34 systems, 36% below the previous year), a natural slowdown after earlier periods of stronger uptake.
The combined impact is substantial: Wodonga's solar community avoids an estimated 10,311 tonnes of CO₂ every year — equivalent to taking 4,910 cars off the road or powering around 2,062 average Australian homes with clean electricity. 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.
