Initial CRAN submission. First public release. Provides R access to data published by the Australian Clean Energy Regulator, with a post-Chubb carbon-integrity layer, Safeguard-reform regime handling, NGER scope discipline, QCMR reconciliation, and a full reproducibility spine.
cer_accu_projects(): tidy project register (method,
proponent, state, crediting period, permanence period, ACCUs issued and
relinquished). Attaches a post-Chubb chubb_flag column via
the bundled integrity scorecard; warns when the user filters on a
suspended or under-review method.cer_accu_issuances(): issuance history by project and
method.cer_accu_contracts(): Carbon Abatement Contract
register covering Emissions Reduction Fund auctions.cer_accu_methods(): static lookup of approved ACCU
methods across Agriculture, Energy Efficiency, Landfill and Waste,
Mining / Oil / Gas, and Vegetation sectors.cer_accu_relinquishments(): voluntary and compliance
relinquishments by project.cer_method_integrity(): bundled 19-method scorecard
with integrity tier (high / standard / contested), Chubb 2022 affected
flag, academic-critique references, and Federal Register instrument
IDs.cer_method_determination(): Federal Register URL for a
method identifier.cer_accu_aggregate(): integrity-weighted aggregation
that breaks ACCU totals by tier; warns when the contested share exceeds
5 per cent of the total.cer_safeguard_facilities(): covered emissions,
baselines, and Safeguard Mechanism Credits (SMCs) for facilities above
the 100,000 tonne CO2e threshold. URL resolved dynamically from the CER
Safeguard landing page so the function survives CER slug changes across
reporting years. Carries a regime column (pre-reform vs
post-reform for 1 July 2023 transition) and a teba_declared
column joining the bundled Trade-Exposed Baseline-Adjusted facility
list.cer_safeguard_baseline_trajectory(): 4.9 per cent p.a.
declining industry-average baseline formula.cer_safeguard_industry_baselines(),
cer_safeguard_teba_facilities(): bundled reference
tables.cer_nger_corporate(): corporate-level Scope 1 and 2
emissions from the National Greenhouse and Energy Reporting scheme.cer_nger_electricity(): facility-level emissions for
electricity generators.cer_nger_scope(): explicit Scope 1 / Scope 2 market /
Scope 2 location selector with clear error when the requested column is
absent.cer_nger_climate_active(): column renaming to a Climate
Active carbon-neutral inventory template.cer_lgc_power_stations(): accredited power stations
eligible to create Large-scale Generation Certificates (LGCs).cer_sres_installations(): monthly rooftop solar PV,
solar water heater, heat pump, and battery installation counts and
capacity by postcode.cer_qcmr(): aggregated certificate volumes, prices
(where published), and abatement statistics from the CER’s Quarterly
Carbon Market Report data workbook.cer_qcmr_reference(), cer_reconcile():
diff live-fetched aggregates against QCMR headline totals; warns on gaps
above 2 per cent.cer_snapshot(): pin a session snapshot date, recorded
in every cer_tbl provenance header, manifest entry, and
citation.cer_sha256() + sidecar integrity verification: every
cached file is hashed at first download and verified on cache hit. Drift
emits a warning (critical because CER restates retroactively).cer_manifest(), cer_manifest_clear(),
cer_manifest_write(): session registry of every fetch (URL,
SHA-256, snapshot pin, R and cer versions). Output as data frame, YAML,
JSON, or CSV for paper appendices.cer_deposit_zenodo(): stage or submit a Zenodo deposit
for a DOI on a data vintage. Dry run by default; call with
upload = TRUE and a ZENODO_TOKEN to mint a
DOI.cer_cite(): text / APA / BibTeX citation with snapshot,
SHA-256 digest, and optional DOI fields.cer_legislative_instrument(): Federal Register URL
resolver.@references section on every exported function citing
governing Acts (Carbon Farming Initiative Act 2011, NGER Act 2007,
Renewable Energy (Electricity) Act 2000, Safeguard Mechanism (Crediting)
Amendment Act 2023), the Chubb Review (2022), Macintosh et al. (2022),
and Climate Change Authority reviews.inst/CITATION with bibentries for the Chubb Review,
Macintosh et al., and the carbondata companion
package.cer_to_carbondata(): remap ACCU projects to the
carbondata Verra / Gold Standard voluntary-project schema
for cross-market comparison.cer_international_comparator(): bundled indicative ACCU
vs EU ETS / NZ ETS / WCI / Verra / Gold Standard reference.cer_cache_info(): inspect the local cache.cer_clear_cache(): clear locally cached files.offsets-integrity-primer: Chubb Review context and
integrity-weighted aggregation.safeguard-reform: pre- vs post-2023 regime
handling.nger-scope-reconciliation: Scope 1 / 2 discipline.ret-compliance-primer: LGC / SRES primer.methodology: hand-computed worked examples.Data is published by the Clean Energy Regulator at https://cer.gov.au/markets/reports-and-data under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International licence.
