Methodology: Operational CO₂ calculated using Australian Government NGA Factors (2024): diesel combustion = 2.68 kg CO₂-e per litre. Consumption estimated from fuel cost ÷ $2.50/L indicative diesel price. Solar reflects operational emissions only — no embodied/lifecycle carbon. Results are indicative only.
