Abstract
With the new carbon tax becoming law in Australia in
2012 targeting the worst polluting companies in the country to
the tune of A$23 a metric tonne, which will rise
by 2.5% a year until 2015, Australian manufacturing will have
to find the extra money to pay the tax. This
perspective explores what will be the impact on the manufacturing
industry in Australia.
Under the scheme, any company that has a
factory or plant that produces 25,000 tonnes per year will
be required to pay the tax. It is estimated that
this will equate to around 500 organisations initially. The Australian
Federal Government expects that between now and 2020 the biggest
contributor to the new tax revenues will come from electricity
generators, certain types of manufacturing that are intensive producers of
greenhouse gases (aluminium, steel, flat glass, paper particularly), and transport,
with electricity generation expecting to contribute 50% of the new
tax revenues. However, certain industries affected by the tax, with
a reliance on exporting their goods internationally, will have access
to government assistance in the form of free carbon permits.
For the worst polluters affected, the free carbon permits will
cover 94.5% of average costs.
The Australian financial markets responded to
the announcement of the carbon tax immediately, with share prices
of coal miners, steel firms, and airlines for example all
experiencing falls, whilst prices for shares of those companies involved
in green energy rose. Looking beyond the short-term impacts, those
companies that are going to be forced to pay the
tax will need to embark on two key strategies. The
first is to reduce the amount of carbon they currently
produce, and the second is to drive for ever greater
efficiencies to offset the increased costs.
To this point, the desire
for greenhouse gas emission reductions has mostly been driven from
a corporate social responsibility perspective and viewed as a "nice
to have" rather than essential. However, this has now changed,
and greenhouse gas emissions now have a tax cost associated
with their creation.
