The carbon price is the amount received for the sale of a single Australian Carbon Credit Unit (ACCU) either to the ERF or another buyer in the market. The Australian Government holds auctions to purchase ACCU’s through the Emission Reduction Fund (ERF) The graph below illustrates the past auction outcomes.
With projects spanning 25 years, evaluation of pricing requires forming a view in both the short and long term and AI Carbon explores and pricing scenarios that may exist across the life of the project.
As a principal licence holder, AI Carbon has complete flexibility in developing sales and marketing strategies to maximise the sale of ACCU's, including structuring forward sales to prioritise cashflow for project stakeholders. If your project is bigger than first estimated your income stream can increase - our agreements are not fixed price contracts. We can also sell your carbon credits to the open market, meaning we can maximise your profit.
