Our latest Carbon Weekly report has now been published, reviewing activity in the Australian and international carbon markets for the period February 3 – 7 2025.

The Australian carbon market saw a moderate uptick in traded volumes last week, driven by a late options trading, with the end of week marked by a fresh round of media scrutiny on the ACCU scheme – particularly Climate Active, and crediting under the former Human Induced Regeneration method. While the latest reports raise familiar criticisms, which will have little-to-no bearing on the market, ongoing stakeholder concerns continue to point to larger risks to market development, and increased regulatory risks for market participants.

In this Carbon Weekly report, we analyse recent activity in the Australian and international voluntary carbon markets, including our ACCU spot price assessments, method spreads, forward activity, and traded volumes.
