On behalf of the Clean Energy Regulator
The Carbon Market Institute’s 2024 Corporate Climate Masterclass Series, delivered on behalf of the Clean Energy Regulator, aims to engage and educate Australian business leaders on the role of carbon markets in corporate transition pathways and Australia’s economy-wide decarbonisation.
As carbon markets play an increasingly important role in Australia, facilitating business transition in alignment with the Paris Agreement goals, the rules of engagement in net zero transition are also rapidly evolving.
Alongside the reformed Safeguard Mechanism that established a strengthened compliance carbon market for Australia’s top polluting industrial facilities, Australia’s forthcoming mandatory climate-related financial disclosure regime and a burgeoning ecosystem of legal, policy and investment frameworks are now shaping financial flows and business decision making.
In this new era of net zero aligned corporate action, integrity remains a critical dimension of how carbon markets are governed and regulated, and how and when companies should engage with carbon markets to reinforce and accelerate the net zero transition.
Through a five-part series delivered in-person and online, the Corporate Climate Masterclass Series provides business practitioners with the foundational knowledge necessary to understand key climate policy, regulatory and market frameworks relevant to Australian businesses. It also delivers practical knowledge to enable practitioners to engage in carbon markets to meet their compliance obligations and realise ambitious decarbonisation strategies.
