Fisherman's Landing is a cement & lime facility operated by CEMENT AUSTRALIA (QUEENSLAND) PTY LIMITED in QLD. Like all covered facilities, cement production releases CO₂ from limestone calcination as well as fuel combustion. Under Australia's Safeguard Mechanism, Fisherman's Landing must keep its annual emissions below a stepping-down baseline — or purchase carbon credits to cover any overage.
In 2023–24, Fisherman's Landing came in under its baseline — reporting emissions of 1.58 Mt against an obligation of 1.60 Mt, a surplus of 15 kt. Facilities that come in under baseline can generate Safeguard Mechanism Credits (SMCs), which can be sold to facilities that need to cover an overage. Fisherman's Landing generated 15,005 SMCs in 2023–24.
Across the cement & lime sector, 2 of 7 covered facilities reported emissions above their baseline in 2023–24. The table below compares Fisherman's Landing with other cement & lime facilities covered by the Safeguard Mechanism.
