CEO's 4 big themes for the carbon markets in 2024

London, 9 January 2024 – Last week, Carbonaires CEO Rasih Ozturkmen spoke with Alex Janiaud from Financial Times and discussed the outlook for the carbon markets in 2024.

Rasih joined other carbon market experts including Andrea Bonzanni – IETA, Allister Furey – Sylvera, Simon Puleston Jones – Climate Solutions and Teresa Hartmann – BeZero Carbon with views shared on Article 6 and the need for greater transparency and regulation in the market.

Rasih set out 4 big themes for the carbon markets this year. We’ll be sharing more insight on each of these over the coming weeks.

1. Progress made at COP28 will fuel discussions to deliver a more robust VCM in 2024 and drive policy negotiations to increase awareness of the importance of Article 6.

2. 2024 is the year that removals will take centre stage, scaling to become the high quality credits of choice.

3. Price diversification of carbon credits will become more pronounced, with high integrity projects continuing to grow in terms of volume and price.

4. There will be greater corporate engagement in the carbon markets through purchase of high integrity credits and investment into carbon removal projects.

July 2026 Newsletter

Issue #75 of the Carbonaires Monthly Newsletter examines the European Commission’s proposal to revise the EU Emissions Trading System, published on 17 July: a 250 million allowance facility ring-fenced to purchase BioCCS and DACCS removals through to 2040, a further 260 million allowances for high-integrity international credits, and a slower cap decline. Set alongside SBTi Version 2 and the draft ISO 14060 standard, it points to carbon removal demand that can be modelled, dated and priced, and to a creditworthy government offtake that begins to solve the tenor problem holding back debt financing.
