The checklist outlines key reporting deadlines, data gathering requirements and considerations for carbon and energy management through a period of economic uncertainty.
- NGERS Compliance (National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting Scheme). Is your company captured by NGERS? If so, have you been collecting audit quality data since July 1 this year? Do you need a suitable system for data gathering and processing for NGERS compliance or cost management, including bill processing? Talk to Energetics about our information management solution, EnTERPRIZE.EM®. Contact Robert Sims, Principal Consultant, on simsr@energetics.com.au.
- Energy Efficiency Opportunities (EEO) annual reporting: required by 31 December 2008.
