The ABS counts dwellings by suburb rather than by postcode, so that total is apportioned across postcode boundaries and is approximate. Every certificate created for a new, upgraded or replaced system since 2001 counts towards the ratio above, so it is not the share of homes with solar. Where building has continued since the Census, the figure can pass 100.
