13,735 solar installations registered with the Clean Energy Regulator · ranked top 5% in Queensland · data current as at 2026-04-03
Based on last week's Queensland grid mix (avg 810 gCO₂/kWh), Ipswich's 13,735 solar systems typically avoid around 85.11 tonnes of CO₂ every hour during peak generation.

Ipswich is one of Queensland's strongest solar communities, ranking 13th in the state — ahead of 97% of all Queensland postcodes tracked by the Clean Energy Regulator. New installations eased in the past 12 months (585 systems, 24% below the previous year), a natural slowdown after earlier periods of stronger uptake.
The combined impact is substantial: Ipswich's solar community avoids an estimated 135,954 tonnes of CO₂ every year — equivalent to taking 64,740 cars off the road or powering around 27,191 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.
