Esperance ranks 286th in Western Australia out of 388 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset, with 43 registered systems to date. Growth has been strong, with 5 new systems installed in the past 12 months — a 25% increase on the previous year, making Esperance one of Western Australia's faster-growing solar postcodes.
Esperance's solar systems avoid an estimated 331 tonnes of CO₂ per year, equivalent to 158 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.
