Overview
Update July 2020
You can provide further comments on the draft method specific FullCAM guidelines.
We are preparing to release an update to the Full Carbon Accounting Model (FullCAM) for public use in September 2020.
FullCAM is the model we use to construct Australia's national greenhouse gas emissions account for the land sector. Emissions Reduction Fund (ERF) project participants use FullCAM to estimate abatement for a range of ERF forest methods.
We will deliver the FullCAM update through a single public release version of FullCAM that will incorporate both a 2020 FullCAM option and a 2016 FullCAM option.
We are inviting initial comments on draft guidelines for the 2020 update of the model. A pre-release version of the FullCAM update is also available to preview. Your input will help us progress the guidelines before we release them for further consultation, before the public release of the new FullCAM.
