Jamestown ranks 215th in South Australia out of 347 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset, with 273 registered systems to date. 16 new systems were added in the past 12 months, with growth of 7% on the previous year — typical of a maturing market where most interested households have already installed.
Collectively, Jamestown's 273 solar systems avoid an estimated 1,234 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 588 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.
