Sumner ranks 147th in Queensland for solar installations — in the middle tier of 449 postcodes tracked by the Clean Energy Regulator across the state. 126 new systems were added in the past 12 months, with growth of 1% on the previous year — typical of a maturing market where most interested households have already installed.
The combined impact is substantial: Sumner's solar community avoids an estimated 24,508 tonnes of CO₂ every year — equivalent to taking 11,670 cars off the road or powering around 4,902 average Australian homes with clean electricity. This is estimated using Queensland's average grid emissions intensity of 810 gCO₂/kWh, sourced from OpenElectricity, applied to an average system size of 9kW.
