The industry’s wide-ranging contribution is critical to the Australian economy and supporting jobs, while also enabling governments to fund public services and infrastructure like hospitals, roads and schools. The industry enables almost $500 billion of economic activity annually and supports 80,000 jobs directly and indirectly, while also supporting other major industries to make the everyday products we rely on.
Our industry has and will continue to play a critical role in Australia as we transition to net zero, led by our export strength and focus on emissions reductions, delivering energy security while focussing on emissions reductions.
