Emissions Reduction Plan

The Australian Government released the Net Zero in Government Operations Strategy in November 2023, setting out the overall approach and action required by Commonwealth entities to achieve the APS Net Zero 2030 target.

The Net Zero in Government Operations Strategy represents a strong commitment by the Australian Government to lead by example on emissions reduction and contribute to the decarbonisation of Australia’s economy.

The Commonwealth Grants Commission (CGC) is committed to the achievement of the Government’s APS Net Zero 2030 target. The CGC is following the APS Net Zero 2030 target in full, as per the Net Zero in Government Operations Strategy. This Emissions Reduction Plan describes the priorities and actions CGC is taking to reduce our operational emissions and contribute to the APS Net Zero 2030 target.
