Publication Date: 
March 2015

Australia's emissions projections 2014-15 [948.47KB PDF] [2.83MB DOCX]

This report explains how Australia's abatement task changed since Australia’s emissions projections 2013 . The report indicates the amount of emissions reductions required to achieve Australia's 2020 target of 5 per cent below 2000 levels was less than previous estimates.

This report estimated Australia's cumulative abatement task to 2020 at 236 million tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (Mt CO2­-e). This has fallen from the 421 Mt CO2-e estimated in December 2013.
