Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs) are the Australian government’s domestic carbon credit instrument, administered by the Clean Energy Regulator and registered on the Australian National Registry of Emissions Units (ANREU). ACCUs are issued for projects that store carbon or reduce emissions in Australia — including native forest regeneration, savanna fire management, and land conservation. Each ACCU represents one tonne of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2-e) stored or avoided.

International carbon credits are generated by projects outside Australia and certified under globally recognised standards including the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS, administered by Verra), the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Clean Development Mechanism, and the Gold Standard. Like ACCUs, each credit represents one tonne of CO2-e stored or avoided, verified by an independent third-party auditor.

Carbonhalo provides access to both ACCU-certified Australian projects and internationally certified credits. Businesses may use either or both, depending on their disclosure strategy, stakeholder expectations, and the nature of their residual emissions.
