In the latest episode of the Accelerating Action podcast, Kate Smith (Senior Consultant, Aurecon) and Anthony Williams (Manager for Carbon Markets and Strategy, Aurecon) sit down with the Australian Water Association to explore the role of carbon credits in the water sector. 

As water utilities strive to meet ambitious net-zero targets, Kate and Anthony shed light on how carbon credits can bridge the gap between current emissions and sustainability goals, especially as utilities tackle emissions tied to essential processes like nitrogen removal. 

In this discussion, they unpack the essentials of carbon credits, including the types available, market risks, and unique challenges for the water sector, such as regulatory obligations and the need for localised offsets in some regions. Kate and Anthony also offer advice on developing effective carbon strategies, from understanding emissions to navigating the complex carbon markets and the regulatory framework surrounding Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs).
