Myuna Colliery is a coal mining facility operated by CENTENNIAL MYUNA PTY LIMITED in NSW. Like all covered facilities, underground and open-cut coal operations emit methane and energy-related CO₂. Under Australia's Safeguard Mechanism, Myuna Colliery must keep its annual emissions below a stepping-down baseline — or purchase carbon credits to cover any overage.
In 2023–24, Myuna Colliery came in under its baseline — reporting emissions of 192 kt against an obligation of 347 kt, a surplus of 155 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. Myuna Colliery generated 155,043 SMCs in 2023–24.
Across the coal mining sector, 8 of 8 covered facilities reported emissions above their baseline in 2023–24. The table below compares Myuna Colliery with other coal mining facilities covered by the Safeguard Mechanism.
