Abstract
South Australian businesses are well positioned to capitalise on opportunities arising from global movements to decarbonise the economy. International markets are developing to trade carbon offset credits and land-based carbon offset projects in South Australia have the potential to supply high quality credits to meet segments of global demand. Current activity indicates that South Australian businesses have been relatively slow to engage in carbon offset projects and this research project aimed to understand what the barriers to supply are and how they might be reduced where benefits can be derived. This project adds to the broader review of the policy context for carbon abatement drivers in South Australia (O’Connor et al., 2019) through the synthesis of perspectives gathered through semi-structured interviews with nineteen participants and observers in carbon supply and policies affecting supply
