Hobart ranks 113th in Tasmania out of 119 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset, with 6 registered systems to date. New installations eased in the past 12 months (0 systems, 100% below the previous year), a natural slowdown after earlier periods of stronger uptake.
Hobart's solar systems avoid an estimated 12 tonnes of CO₂ per year, equivalent to 6 fewer cars on the road annually. This is estimated using Tasmania's average grid emissions intensity of 170 gCO₂/kWh, sourced from OpenElectricity, applied to an average system size of 9kW.
