Devonport ranks 45th in Tasmania for solar installations — in the middle tier of 119 postcodes tracked by the Clean Energy Regulator across the state. New installations eased in the past 12 months (30 systems, 17% below the previous year), a natural slowdown after earlier periods of stronger uptake.
Collectively, Devonport's 519 solar systems avoid an estimated 1,078 tonnes of CO₂ per year — the equivalent of removing 513 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.
