About safeguard data
Under the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting (Safeguard Mechanism) Rule 2015, the Clean Energy Regulator (the agency) is required to publish the following:
- information about
emissions baseline determinations (baselines)
- for each facility covered by the safeguard mechanism in a reporting year - the baseline emissions number in force for that year, total reported emissions, the responsible emitter(s) for each facility, any Australian carbon credit units surrendered and whether the facility has a multi-year monitoring period in place.
- an estimate of the total number of Australian carbon credit units (ACCUs) likely to be surrendered by facilities with multi-year monitoring periods that are ongoing.
Information about new emissions baseline determinations is published several times a year. Reporting year information and multi-year monitoring period ACCU estimates is published each year, after the 1 March compliance deadline.
