The Climate Change Authority is developing advice on the 2035 emissions reduction targets for Australia’s next Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC), as requested by the Federal Minister for Climate Change and Energy.
Details are provided on the Authority’s approach in its 2023 consultation papers on:
- Setting, tracking and achieving Australia’s emissions reduction targets;
- Modelling for the 2035 targets.
Australia is due to submit its next NDC under the Paris Agreement in 2025. Under the Climate Change Act 2022, the Federal Government must receive the Authority’s advice before submitting Australia’s next emissions reduction targets.
