Our latest Carbon Weekly report has now been published, reviewing activity in the Australian and international carbon markets for the period 18-22 Mar 2024.
The market responded to news of the potential tightening of the regeneration pipeline under the IFLM method with increased activity for Human Induced Regeneration (HIR) ACCUs last week, while demand for Generic and Generic (no-AD) projects continued to flow. After a turbulent week for regeneration project developers, the key watch for market participants will now be the scope of allowed grazing management activities under any new IFLM method, which will be informed by the strength (or lack) of evidence on the link between grazing management and regeneration – particularly in more arid areas. Watch this space. Notably, the delay to the IFLM method and the sunsetting of the Native-Forest Managed Regrowth and Environmental Plantings (EP) methods now raises the prospect of a gap in the availability of more actively used vegetation methods should the timeline for the new EP method slip.
RepuTex’s Carbon Weekly report analyses recent activity in the Australian and international voluntary carbon markets, including our ACCU spot price assessment by method, spreads, forward activity, traded volumes, and key market developments. Analysis considers the Australian market along with international registries including Verra, Gold Standard, the American Carbon Registry, and the Climate Action Reserve.
