South Australia grid · community impact

Based on last week's South Australia grid mix (avg 370 gCO₂/kWh), Postcode 5606's 3,143 solar systems typically avoid around 8.90 tonnes of CO₂ every hour during peak generation.

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

Postcode 5606 sits in the top third of South Australia for solar uptake, ranking 43rd in the state out of 347 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset. 114 new systems were installed in the past 12 months, a 15% increase on the previous year — steady growth consistent with continued community uptake.

The combined impact is substantial: Postcode 5606's solar community avoids an estimated 14,211 tonnes of CO₂ every year — equivalent to taking 6,767 cars off the road or powering around 2,842 average Australian homes with clean electricity. 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.
