Australian National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting System (NGER)

What is the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting System?

The Australian Government is developing a system for reporting greenhouse and energy usage by industry. This is to streamline the process of reporting emissions across all inustries and jurisdictions and to minimise the reporting burden on businesses.

From the Department of Climate Change web site:

Key features of the system are:

  • a single online entry point for reporting based on the Online System for Comprehensive Activity Reporting (OSCAR);
  • a standard data set and nationally consistent methodologies for reporting;
  • public disclosure of company level greenhouse gas emissions and energy data;
  • consistent and comparable data provided to government for policy making;
  • secure data storage; and
  • reporting thresholds that avoid capturing small business.
