Carbon markets

We have a proud record of designing and implementing carbon market mechanisms that deliver environmental and economic progress.

Carbon markets are trading systems where credits can be bought and sold. Organisations can obtain credits from other parties who have been able to significantly reduce their own greenhouse gas emissions.

Our specialists help design and implement robust carbon market mechanisms by providing technical expertise in fields such as industrial emissions abatement, renewable energy deployment, climate finance, measurement, reporting and verification, and inventory design.
