Project and contract register
We publish information about:
- all projects registered under the Australian Carbon Credit Unit (ACCU) Scheme
- carbon abatement contracts awarded by us
- Australian carbon credit units (ACCUs) sold to us.
The ACCU Scheme project map is an interactive map of Australia which provides an overview of the volume, location and type of projects happening across the country.
The project register can be used by buyers who want to find possible sources of ACCUs. It can also be used by people who want to buy land that has an ACCU Scheme project on it. This will help them factor into the sale price the potential costs and benefits of the project.
The contract register may be used by market participants to determine the demand for ACCUs through the previous CER auction process. For more information see carbon abatement contracts.
About the project register
Changes to the project register
The Minister for Climate Change and Energy has amended the Carbon Credits (Carbon Farming Initiative) Rule 2015 to increase the amount of ACCU Scheme project information that will be published, as recommended in the 2022 Independent Review of ACCUs.
Over the next 6-months, we will transition the project register to publish the new information. The updates will be completed by 20 June 2025. We’ll work with ACCU Scheme participants to confirm the information to be published.
During this period, we’ll publish updates to the project register after the end of each month. We’ll also publish monthly updates to the contract register outside of any future exit window.
The project register and map shows the number, location and type of ACCU Scheme projects happening across Australia.
It includes:
- a description of the project
- location of the project
- number of ACCUs issued
- number of ACCUs relinquished
- any carbon maintenance obligations in place.
Please see the following tables for updates to the register as at 31 January 2025, since the previous register update (data as at 31 December 2024).

About the carbon abatement contract register
The contract register includes information about:
- carbon abatement contracts awarded by us
- contract duration
- end date and status
- volume of ACCUs contracted, released and delivered for each contract
- contract holder and ACCU Scheme project for each contract.
A total of 3,903,916 ACCUs have been sold under carbon abatement contracts to the Commonwealth since 12 January 2023. Under specific circumstances, these ACCUs will be available for use in the Safeguard Mechanism’s cost-containment measure.
Multiple contracts
We list each contract separately. Some contractors have multiple contracts.
Optional delivery contracts
We have awarded optional delivery contracts since March 2020. These give sellers the option to sell carbon abatement to us. If the seller doesn't exercise their right to sell carbon abatement to us for a given delivery milestone, the volume of abatement committed under the optional delivery contract reduces from the original volume of abatement committed.
Expiry dates
Contracts expire when all obligations are finalised or where both parties have agreed to terminate. Note that the Clean Energy Regulator is unlikely to agree to a termination where the seller has not delivered the full contracted volume and is likely to still have access to ACCUs from their projects, including from projects that are not the anchor project for the contract.
Contracts will also lapse where conditions precedent haven't been fulfilled or waived by the expiry date set out in the contract. There may be a delay in reflecting a conditions precedent or activated contract ending in the contract register. This is due to ongoing contract negotiations between the seller and us.
Fixed delivery exit arrangements or lapsed optional delivery milestones
From 15 November 2023 the contract register includes information on contract volume that has been released through fixed delivery exit arrangements or through lapsed optional delivery milestones.
Human-induced regeneration (HIR) and native forest from managed regrowth (NFMR) projects
From 12 July 2020, the contract register includes extensions to the delivery periods of some contracts for HIR and NFMR projects. We granted extensions for certain projects after release and implementation of the Guidelines on stratification evidence and records for HIR and NFMR.
