Corporate Carbon Group scales up with ION’s Carbon Zero, leading Australia’s carbon market

LONDON – 11 March 2025: ION Commodities, a global leader in energy and commodity management solutions, announces that Corporate Carbon Group (CCG), a leading Australian carbon abatement project developer, has implemented ION’s Carbon Zero solution to enhance its operations and ensure future scalability.

CCG has played a significant role in Australia’s carbon market since its inception in 2010. It boasts over 100 verified carbon development projects, delivering more than 15 million Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs) to government and commercial clients, and achieving 15 million tonnes of emissions reduction to date.

Global investment in energy transition is rising as countries strive to meet ambitious carbon emission requirements. More governments are implementing market-based carbon pricing schemes to engage corporate stakeholders in contributing to national sustainability targets. Australia began developing its emissions trading system (ETS) in 2008. To seize this opportunity and scale its operations, CCG recognized the need to enhance its management capabilities and selected Carbon Zero.

CCG chose the solution for its comprehensive features tailored to the intricacies of project financing and other complex deal structures, along with its quick deployment and intuitive, user-centric design. With a flexible reporting suite designed for renewable certificates, Carbon Zero has enabled CCG to analyze risk across various projects and portfolios while stress-testing performance through different trading and price scenarios. Carbon Zero has also eliminated numerous manual processes, including reporting tasks such as Value at Risk (VaR), liquidity, and inventory valuation reports, all of which are now accessible with live data within the application.

Angus Robertson, Head of Carbon Trading at Corporate Carbon Group, said: “Since going live with Carbon Zero, we have witnessed transformative effects on our operations, decision-making capabilities, and data reliability, positioning the company for sustained success in the dynamic Australian carbon market and preparing us to scale internationally.”

Sunil Biswas, Chief Executive Officer at ION Corporates, said: “We are proud to partner with pioneers like Corporate Carbon Group. Their leadership in the carbon abatement market aligns with our mission to deliver innovative solutions for a sustainable future.”
