850 solar installations registered with the Clean Energy Regulator · ranked top 25% in Tasmania · data current as at 2026-06-15
Based on last week's Tasmania grid mix (avg 170 gCO₂/kWh), Oatlands's 850 solar systems typically avoid around 1.11 tonnes of CO₂ every hour during peak generation.

Oatlands sits in the top third of Tasmania for solar uptake, ranking 29th in the state out of 119 postcodes in the Clean Energy Regulator dataset. New installations eased in the past 12 months (56 systems, 20% below the previous year), a natural slowdown after earlier periods of stronger uptake.
Collectively, Oatlands's 850 solar systems avoid an estimated 1,766 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 841 cars from the road. 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.
