Carbon Sequestration

MBAC has undertaken a significant number of consulting assignments relating to the development of forest offsets, not only looking at the viability of establishing forest offsets but also determining the potential rates of carbon sequestration, evaluating potential suppliers of forest based offsets as well as advising on project design and the area and availability of Kyoto compliant land that could be used in a forest based offset project.

Our projects have covered voluntary, regulatory, mandatory and REDD markets for offsets. MBAC has undertaken this work for several major emitters, including AGL, Bluescope Steel, CS Energy, Australian Government (Dept Climate Change and Department of Forestry and Fisheries), Ernst & Young, Energy Strategies, Forestry Tasmania, INPEX Browse, Macquarie Bank, SEQ Catchments, Synergy, Timbercorp and VicForests. These projects have been undertaken in every Australian State as well as in Mozambique, Angola, The Congo and New Zealand.
