Kingaroy ranks 288th in Queensland out of 449 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset, with 411 registered systems to date. Growth has been strong, with 26 new systems installed in the past 12 months — a 24% increase on the previous year, making Kingaroy one of Queensland's faster-growing solar postcodes.
Collectively, Kingaroy's 411 solar systems avoid an estimated 4,068 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 1,937 cars from the road. 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.
