Energy Efficient Lighting Project

ERF103278

Project Information:

Energy Efficient Lighting Project is an energy efficiency project located nationwide across Australia, rather than in a single geographic location. Registered on March 29, 2016, the project operates under an aggregated structure, meaning it encompasses lighting upgrades at multiple commercial and public sites throughout the country. As of late 2025, the project had completed its seven-year crediting period, which ran from August 2017 to July 2024.

The project utilizes the Carbon Credits (Carbon Farming Initiative, Commercial and Public Lighting) Methodology Determination 2015. This methodology credits the reduction in electricity usage achieved by replacing older, energy-intensive lighting systems (such as mercury vapour, metal halide, or halogen lamps) with energy-efficient LED alternatives. The abatement is calculated by comparing the energy consumption of the new system against the baseline of the old system.

Because this project operates within the built environment across various Australian jurisdictions, it does not occupy a specific ecological zone with defined soil or rainfall characteristics. Instead, the "environment" consists of commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and public infrastructure where lighting plays a critical functional role. The project proponent is recorded as Power Product Holdings Pty Ltd. Over its active life, the project has successfully generated and been issued 8,991 Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs).
