NGER Reporting & Assurance

The National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting (NGER) Scheme is Australia’s mandatory framework for reporting greenhouse gas emissions, energy production, and energy consumption. At Emission Statement, we help organisations meet their NGER obligations with confidence, accuracy, and strategic insight.

What Is the NGER Scheme?

Established under the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Act 2007, the NGER Scheme requires corporations that exceed certain thresholds to report their emissions and energy data annually to the Clean Energy Regulator. This data informs national climate policy, supports international reporting, and underpins mechanisms like the Safeguard Mechanism.

Who Needs to Report?

Organisations must register and report under NGER if they meet or exceed any of the following thresholds:

Facility level: 25 kilotonnes of CO₂-e emissions or 100 terajoules of energy
Corporate group level: 50 kilotonnes of CO₂-e emissions or 200 terajoules of energy

Reporting is due annually by 31 October for the previous financial year.
