Green House Gas Emissions

Opportunities to reduce the Project’s carbon footprint

Project Targets
  • 6% of all construction stage energy use offset in accordance with the Australian Government National Carbon Offset Standard

Performance

The graph below displays the current tonnes CO2 (Scope 1 & 2) generated from the project due to electricity and fuel consumption. The most recent update of the model estimates 233,295t CO2 during construction. The Project has currently emitted 138,238t CO2, of which 33,901t CO2 correspond to the review period. Project to date emissions amounts to 59% of the Project’s forecasted emissions. This figure from the model is inclusive of the WHT STW scope which has decreased the overall usage % due to the addition of works.

The project is required to offset 6% of construction stage energy consumption, the project will focus on procuring offsets with additional social benefits alongside carbon abatement.
