The Quarterly Carbon Market Report (QCMR) is the leading source of data on Australia’s carbon markets. It provides a regular view of supply and demand across the markets supporting the schemes we administer.  

The Australian environmental markets chapter includes Australian Carbon Credit Unit (ACCU) project registrations, issuance and demand, and information on Safeguard Mechanism credit units, the Nature Repair Market and Product Guarantee of Origin Scheme.  

The Large-scale renewables chapter includes investment, approval and generation of large-scale renewable energy across the Large-scale Renewable Energy Target (LRET) and Renewable Electricity Guarantee of Origin (REGO) Scheme.  

The Small-scale Renewable Energy Scheme (SRES) chapter includes uptake of rooftop solar, small-scale batteries and energy efficient technology. 

QCMRs outline:

  • key factors influencing market performance
  • trends and opportunities that may influence market decisions
  • topics specific to unit and certificate types in separate chapters.
