Navigating Carbon Markets: Regional Strategies and Global Impact

From being captured and stored deep underground to having its own price in markets, carbon management has become a central focus in the fight against climate change. In this episode of The Trilemma, we explore the rapidly evolving landscape of carbon management and Carbon Capture, Utilization, and Storage (CCUS).

Richard Hares, Principal and Head of Carbon Management and energy experts Tunbosun Afolayan, and Jason Eleson, discuss critical topics shaping the global energy transition. They dive into regional decarbonization strategies across Canada, Europe, and the U.S., exploring the future of carbon markets, comparing compliance and voluntary systems, and the impact of regional policies like the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) and Canada’s Output-Based Pricing System (OBPS). 

Additionally, the trio analyzes investment trends in energy transition technologies, with a focus on CCS, hydrogen, and renewable energy, and discusses groundbreaking technological innovations that are driving progress toward a low-carbon future. 

Tune in for an insightful discussion on the strategies, challenges, and opportunities in the global carbon management landscape.
