Macro expansion only works inside Org proper markup.
Macros are only recognized withing non-verbatim contexts.
Src blocks are considered verbatim and macros are not expanded there.
Otherwise, Org would risk interfering with proper programming language
syntax.
What you can do instead is creating a named Org paragraph with macro,
like
#+name: year
{{{year}}}
and then refer to it via variable assignments.
