Corporations registered under the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007 (NGER Act) are required to report greenhouse gas emissions, and energy production and consumption to the Clean Energy Regulator, by 31 October each year.

By 28 February each year, the Clean Energy Regulator is required to publish a point-in-time extract of reported scope 1 and scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions in addition to net energy consumption for each corporation that exceeded the NGER publication threshold.

The corporate emissions and energy data also includes information in respect to reporting transfer certificates (RTCs) and liability transfer certificates (LTCs).

Reporting transfer certificates allow National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting obligations to transfer from a controlling corporation with operational control over the facility to the corporation that has financial control over the facility.

Liability transfer certificates allowed parties to agree to the transfer of liability, and associated reporting obligations for a facility, under the carbon pricing mechanism, from the person with operational control to the person with financial control over the facility, provided that the two entities are not members of the same corporate group. Liability transfer certificates were discontinued after the 2013-14 reporting year due to the repeal of the carbon pricing mechanism on 1 July 2014.

This extract reflects a point-in-time picture of Australia’s corporate emissions and energy use in 2012–13 and is subject to change based on ongoing regulation of compliance.
