Annual Report 2024–25

Green Industries SA (GISA) continues to lead South Australia’s transition to a more circular economy, aligned to a smart, sustainable and inclusive economy outlined in the South Australian Government’s Economic Statement, as well as the government’s net zero commitments and ambitions.

During 2024–25, GISA implemented various projects and programs to drive circular economy activity under our statutory functions – seeking to reduce and eliminate waste, ensure materials are recirculated within the economy at their highest value and to regenerate nature.

A key achievement during the year was the development and public consultation on the draft of our next 5-year strategy under the Green Industries SA Act 2004. The draft 2025–2030 strategy will be finalised in late 2025, and sets ambitious goals and targets that will support our journey to a more circular South Australia.

During 2024–25, GISA completed final works under the River Murray Flood Waste Clean-up Program. This included 34,726 tonnes of flood affected material removed, and 1,381 tonnes of asbestos safely collected and disposed. 

In 2024–25, GISA committed $5.241 million in funding assistance to businesses, industry, local government, non-government organisations and charities, and continued the administration and monitoring of existing grant agreements and projects.

2024–25 also saw the release of GISA's Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan – the first step on a journey of Reconciliation for the agency.
