Daunia Coal Mine — Safeguard baseline, covered emissions and modelled path to FY2034-35

Current position · FY2024-25, as published

Current position

Published register values. The baseline is the emissions limit the rules set for the facility; covered emissions are the scope 1 emissions it reported. A facility above its baseline must surrender Safeguard credits or ACCUs for the difference. A facility below its baseline may receive Safeguard credits, subject to the crediting rules.

Covered emissions FY2024-25209,969 tOfficialScope 1 emissions reported by the facility as covered by the scheme.

Composition of covered emissions by gas

The register reports covered emissions by greenhouse gas. At this facility carbon dioxide accounts for 80.26% of the total. The gas mix helps indicate which types of abatement may be relevant, although it does not identify the emitting process.

Greenhouse gas	t CO₂-e	Share
Carbon dioxide	168,516	80.26%
Methane	40,963	19.51%
Nitrous oxide	479	0.23%

Change since previous year

FY2023-24 to FY2024-25

This facility name does not appear in the FY2023-24 register, so no comparison is shown. The facility may have entered the scheme in FY2024-25, may have been below the coverage threshold in the previous year, or may have reported under a different name. Which of these applies has not been verified. The Atlas method page lists the name pairs identified for verification.

Modelled pathway

The baseline path to FY2034-35

Under the Safeguard Rule a baseline is production multiplied by an applicable emissions intensity and by the emissions reduction contribution (ERC). The ERC is the part that falls each year: by 0.049 per year to FY2029-30, and from FY2030-31 by the post-2030 decline rate. This facility holds no trade-exposed baseline adjustment determination and follows the default path. The controls below change the rate and the production assumption; the chart and figures are recalculated for this facility.

Post-2030 decline rate, percentage points per year

Production

Modelled The path scales the published baseline by the change in the ERC. It is not a compliance determination and not a forecast of the facility's emissions: covered emissions are held at the FY2024-25 level and adjusted only by the selected production assumption. The Regulator's published baseline governs.

Peer comparison

Facilities in the same reporting category

The FY2024-25 register includes 66 facilities in this reporting category (Coal mining (060)). The median one reported 340,920 t; this facility reported 209,969 t, below the median. The category is a reporting classification rather than a description of the process. Two facilities with the same code may operate different plant, so the comparison is indicative only.

Facilities of similar size in the same reporting category: Mount Pleasant Operations (221,984 t), Boggabri Coal Minesite (218,760 t), Coppabella Coal Mine (208,542 t), Isaac Plains Complex (207,822 t).

Commodity used for the production assumption on this page: coal, blended 85% metallurgical coal. Assumption
