Kangaroo Island ranks 199th in South Australia for solar installations — in the middle tier of 347 postcodes tracked by the Clean Energy Regulator across the state. 24 new systems were added in the past 12 months, with growth of 4% on the previous year — typical of a maturing market where most interested households have already installed.
Collectively, Kangaroo Island's 375 solar systems avoid an estimated 1,696 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 808 cars from the road. This is estimated using South Australia's average grid emissions intensity of 370 gCO₂/kWh, sourced from OpenElectricity, applied to an average system size of 9kW.
