Last week, DCCEEW published a new draft landfill gas method outlining updated rules for crediting emission reductions from landfills. Following further feedback, the method will be finalised for assessment by ERAC.
Modelling indicates that the differences between the new draft method and DCCEEW’s earlier reform paper are small, but impactful.
Should it be adopted, we expect the new landfill gas method to have a significant impact on Australia’s carbon market, generating an additional 17 million ACCUs, which will materially re-shape Australia’s supply landscape – and price development.
In this webinar recording, RepuTex Director of Carbon Research, Dr. Anton Firth, discusses our latest briefing paper, “The potential impact of the draft landfill gas method on ACCU supply“, published on 22 May 2025.
Specifically, Dr. Firth discusses the key changes in the draft landfill gas method, and our modelled impacts on forecast ACCU supply, along with broader market and pricing dynamics through to 2035.
