The Australian National Registry of Emissions Units (ANREU) is administered by the Clean Energy Regulator. ANREU is a system designed to meet one of Australia's commitments under the Kyoto Protocol. The Protocol requires each country with an emission reduction target to establish a national registry to ensure accurate accounting of the issuance, holding, transfer, acquisition, cancellation, retirement and carry-over of Kyoto units.
ANREU supports the issuance, holding, transfer, and acquisition of Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs) issued under the Australian Government's Emissions Reduction Fund.
The Clean Energy Regulator is an independent statutory authority established by the Clean Energy Regulator Act 2011 to administer climate change law and operates as part of the Environment portfolio.
The Clean Energy Regulator administers the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting System (NGERS), the Emissions Reduction Fund and the Renewable Energy Target.
Organisations or individuals that wish to hold Kyoto units in Australia, or ACCUs are required to have an ANREU account. If you wish to open an ANREU account please follow this link: Get more information on opening an account
