Market key trends:
Growing concerns about environmental pollution and climate change have boosted the implementation of carbon pricing mechanisms such as emissions trading schemes across the globe. Many countries and regions have initiated cap-and-trade programs by setting firm emissions caps that decrease over time to curb greenhouse gas emissions from major industries. For instance, the European Union Emissions Trading System is considered the world’s largest carbon market covering 31 countries. Increasing stringency of emissions regulations is expected to drive higher demand for emissions credits in the coming years.
SWOT Analysis
