CORSIA: Market Developments and Forecast Scenarios
Explore the future of CORSIA credits in the Voluntary Carbon Market with our latest report, offering an in-depth analysis of supply, demand, and pricing trends and forecasting scenarios.
Key Insights:
-
Only 15 million credits currently meet CORSIA’s eligibility for the First Phase, this is less than 10% of projected demand.
-
Demand from aviation and other sectors is surging, with prices projected to reach $14–$16 per credit by 2027.
-
Policy frameworks and enforcement mechanisms will shape market outcomes, with undersupply potentially driving prices above $20 per credit.
This report provides essential forecasting scenarios to help the market make sense of supply constraints, anticipate pricing trends, and ensure compliance in an evolving regulatory environment.
Forecasting Prices, Supply & Demand in the Voluntary Carbon Market
Our new forecast report leverages years of data and analysis to present critical future trends for the voluntary carbon market.
Among other things, in the report, we review some of the key findings from our Base Case Scenario. The base case below projects a growth scenario that sees companies offsetting a portion of their missed targets. Here we expect the market to grow slowly until 2032, as oversupply of credits means that there is enough supply to satisfy demand until that year.
The primary market value stays in the single digits until 2033, at which point it quickly increases, reaching ~$40b by 2040 (in nominal terms).
