Queensland grid · community impact

Based on last week's Queensland grid mix (avg 810 gCO₂/kWh), Postcode 4859's 101 solar systems typically avoid around 0.63 tonnes of CO₂ every hour during peak generation.

Grid intensity data: Open Electricity (openelectricity.org.au) · 7-day average · updates monthly

Postcode 4859 ranks 374th in Queensland out of 449 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset, with 101 registered systems to date. 7 new systems were installed in the past 12 months, a 17% increase on the previous year — steady growth consistent with continued community uptake.

Collectively, Postcode 4859's 101 solar systems avoid an estimated 1,000 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 476 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.
