Jemena Gas Networks
The Safeguard Mechanism requires Australia's largest industrial facilities to keep net emissions under a legislated, stepping-down baseline — or offset the difference with carbon credits.

What this means
Jemena Gas Networks is a facility operated by JEMENA GAS NETWORKS (NSW) LTD in NSW. Like all covered facilities, industrial operations generate significant emissions. Under Australia's Safeguard Mechanism, Jemena Gas Networks must keep its annual emissions below a stepping-down baseline — or purchase carbon credits to cover any overage.
In 2017–18, Jemena Gas Networks came in under its baseline — reporting emissions of 344 kt against an obligation of 528 kt, a surplus of 184 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.
