Postcode 4489 ranks 421st in Queensland out of 449 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset, with 22 registered systems to date. New installations eased in the past 12 months (1 systems, 50% below the previous year), a natural slowdown after earlier periods of stronger uptake.

Postcode 4489's solar systems avoid an estimated 218 tonnes of CO₂ per year, equivalent to 104 fewer cars on the road annually. 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.
