2,804 solar installations registered with the Clean Energy Regulator · ranked top 50% in Queensland · data current as at 2026-04-03
Based on last week's Queensland grid mix (avg 810 gCO₂/kWh), Noosa's 2,804 solar systems typically avoid around 17.37 tonnes of CO₂ every hour during peak generation.

Noosa ranks 139th in Queensland for solar installations — in the middle tier of 449 postcodes tracked by the Clean Energy Regulator across the state. 137 new systems were installed in the past 12 months, a 14% increase on the previous year — steady growth consistent with continued community uptake.
The combined impact is substantial: Noosa's solar community avoids an estimated 27,755 tonnes of CO₂ every year — equivalent to taking 13,217 cars off the road or powering around 5,551 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.
