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

Kalgoorlie ranks 351st in Western Australia out of 388 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset, with 9 registered systems to date. New installations eased in the past 12 months (1 systems, 67% below the previous year), a natural slowdown after earlier periods of stronger uptake.

Kalgoorlie's solar systems avoid an estimated 69 tonnes of CO₂ per year, equivalent to 33 fewer cars on the road annually. This is estimated using Western Australia's average grid emissions intensity of 630 gCO₂/kWh, sourced from OpenElectricity, applied to an average system size of 9kW.
