Disclosure log relating to potential financed emissions
The disclosure log on this page lists those projects for which, since 1 January 2025, the NAIF Board has endorsed a strategic assessment paper (SAP) and which are the subject of ongoing due diligence by NAIF. It discloses the likelihood of these projects meeting the Safeguard Mechanism threshold for any given year of operation (i.e., greater than 100,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent).
As a Commonwealth Government gap financier, our role is to drive growth for northern Australia. We invest in infrastructure projects that create jobs, procurement opportunities, public benefits for the region and positive outcomes for First Nations peoples.
We are committed to investing responsibly and supporting projects that contribute to sustainable development across northern Australia. As part of our commitment to transparency, we provide information below on projects that have progressed through the strategic assessment phase since 1 January 2025, including those that may be subject to the Safeguard Mechanism.
By sharing this information, we aim to foster accountability and encourage informed decision-making as we continue to work towards a cleaner, more sustainable future.
