Carbon Markets
Carbon markets are essential to achieving net-zero and net-negative emissions. As businesses increasingly commit to reducing emissions, it is now anticipated that carbon markets will need to scale by 15- to 160-fold to meet growing demand.
Carbontier is routinely called upon to provide multi-jurisdictional legal advice on all aspects of complex carbon markets and emissions trading matters, including:
- Emissions trading agreements, including emissions reduction purchase agreements (ERPAs), emissions removal purchase agreements, emission offset development agreements, renewable energy certificate (REC) agreements, and others,
- Carbon pricing, cap and trade, and emissions trading system design,
- Carbon bonds and carbon funds,
- Ownership of and title to natural assets and environmental commodities,
- Climate change project development, including carbon storage projects,
- Net-zero, carbon-neutral, or carbon-negative pathways for businesses and governments,
- Negative emissions technologies (NETs) and related transactions,
- Nature-based climate solutions (NCS) and related transactions.
