Allocation decisions
Each year we decide on the number of New Zealand Units (NZUs) allocated to eligible industry applicants. We publish the lists of these allocations here.

Each year we decide on the number of New Zealand Units (NZUs) allocated to eligible industry applicants. We publish the lists of these allocations here.
We make these decisions in accordance with section 86B(5) of the Climate Change Response Act 2002 (CCRA).
Some tables are updated to reflect amendments to final allocation decisions made in accordance with section 86C(1) of the CCRA.
NZUs have been allocated to eligible industry applicants to protect their competitiveness against producers that do not face equivalent costs for emissions.
All industry participants listed were eligible to receive an allocation of NZUs under the CCRA for the period of 1 January to 31 December of the relevant year, except for 2010 when allocations were received for 1 July to 31 December.
The final unit allocation figure reflects the total units given to a participant based on their actual production for the specified year.
The NZUs allocated under these decisions have been transferred to the respective New Zealand Emissions Trading Register holding accounts.
There is a legal requirement under the Act to publish final allocation decisions in the New Zealand Gazette, and to make this information available on the internet.
An organisation can ask us to consider withholding the publication of their allocation of units, on the basis that publishing this information would be likely to prejudice their commercial position unreasonably.
More detail on the most recent decisions can be found below.
