NSW Greenhouse Gas Abatement Scheme Sample Clauses

NSW Greenhouse Gas Abatement Scheme. The NSW Greenhouse Gas Abatement Scheme (NGGAS) aims to reduce the per capita production of greenhouse gases in NSW, and is administered by the Independent Pricing and Regulatory Tribunal (IPART). Retailers can fulfil their obligations by buying NSW Greenhouse Abatement Certificates (NGACs), which each correspond to a 1 tonne reduction in CO2-e emissions. The number of NGACs created by a renewable energy system will depend on the amount of CO2 that would have been released by the generator(s) it is displacing. NGACs are currently valued at $7 to $9 per tonne CO2-e, and so assuming that 1kWh of electricity in NSW generates 1.0 kg CO2, an NGAC can add about 0.7–0.9¢ of value per kWh of renewable energy. 13 The reference price is the price paid for electricity the retailer buys from the system owner, and with net metering is equal to the retail price. NGACs can be created by any renewable energy generator defined according to the Greenhouse Gas Benchmark Rule (Generation) No. 2 of 2003, as long as the electricity generated is sold to NSW customers. NGGAS – Current situation Currently no retailer uses output from small-scale renewable energy generation to meet their NGGAS obligations. As retailers become more familiar with this scheme, this could change. However, given that electricity used to create RECs cannot also be used to create NGACs (unless emissions of non- CO2 greenhouse gases such as methane are also reduced eg. landfill gas), it is unlikely the output from residential-scale renewable energy systems would be used to earn NGACs.
