NPI Report

The National Pollution Index (NPI) Report provides a summary of your site’s fuel usage and assists in determining whether your operations meet the Australian NPI reporting threshold.

Purpose​

This report helps you track total fuel consumption by category and identify whether your organisation approaches the 400-tonne fuel-burn threshold that triggers mandatory emissions reporting under the NPI Guide v5.3 (May 2012).

Date Range​

At the top of the report, you can select or view the reporting period.
Example: 1st July 2025 – 30th September 2025.
Only fuel transactions recorded within this period will be included.

Thresholds for NPI Reporting​

An informational banner provides reference data for the NPI thresholds:

“NPI Guide v5.3 of May 2012 declares the minimum threshold of 400 tonnes of fuel burnt in the reporting year to trigger the emission reporting requirement.”

  • Petrol conversion coefficient: 0.739 kg/L (≈ 531 000 L to reach threshold)
  • Diesel conversion coefficient: 0.836 kg/L (≈ 478 000 L to reach threshold)

If multiple fuel types are used, convert all fuels to units of mass (kg or tonnes) before comparing against the threshold.

Report Structure​

The NPI report groups data by fuel type and equipment category, showing both the total volume and the percentage contribution for each category.

BAN01 Section​

  • Displays total fuel usage for the fuel type BAN01.
  • Sub-categories include:
    • Surface Miners
    • Compressors
    • LGV (<4.5 T)
  • Each category shows the volume in litres and percentage share of total BAN01 fuel usage.
  • Click collapse / expand to show or hide transaction details.

Diesel Section​

  • Displays total diesel usage and its breakdown by category:
    • LGV (<4.5 T)
    • Compressors
    • Surface Miners
  • Volumes and percentages are shown for each category.
  • Expand or collapse each row to view further details.
