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

Geraldton ranks 128th in Western Australia for solar installations — in the middle tier of 388 postcodes tracked by the Clean Energy Regulator across the state. New installations eased in the past 12 months (44 systems, 12% below the previous year), a natural slowdown after earlier periods of stronger uptake.

Collectively, Geraldton's 752 solar systems avoid an estimated 5,789 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 2,757 cars from the road. 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.
