Estimating the future prices and scale of engineered GGRs in voluntary carbon markets

AlliedOffsets was commissioned by the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) to conduct research and forecast modeling on the future prices and volumes of engineered greenhouse gas removals (GGRs) in the UK from 2026 to 2050. The analysis is scenario-based and contains illustrative findings, not definitive predictions. The analysis uses AlliedOffsets Forecast Model, and covers six GGR pathways: direct air capture, biochar, enhanced rock weathering, and three forms of BECCS, across three scenarios plus a “VCM failure” case. Results show cumulative traded volumes ranging from 47.8 Mt to 851.8 Mt by 2050, with average prices between £164/t and £284/t. Early deployment is led by lower-cost technologies, with higher-cost options scaling later. Download the full report to learn more about the report findings.

Article 6 Market

The Article 6 Market: Scale, Value and Pipeline

Article 6 is moving from policy design to market implementation, but progress remains uneven. Our new report reveals a market defined by early momentum, structural bottlenecks, and widening gaps between ambition and execution. This report explores the key signals shaping the next phase of Article 6: from limited host country authorizations and constrained CORSIA demand, to tightening transition timelines under A6.4 and the emergence of three distinct market pathways. These findings offer a clearer view of where the market stands today, and what participants need to understand about what comes next.

CORSIA, Insurance and Forecasting

CORSIA Market Forecast

Insurance is emerging as a critical enabler of the global aviation carbon market, as new analysis from carbon market intelligence provider AlliedOffsets and carbon insurance provider Artio reveals that constraints on insurable supply, rather than issuance volumes alone, will define the trajectory of the global aviation offsetting scheme – CORSIA – in its first compliance phase. This jointly published report shows that while the volume of eligible credits has more than doubled in the past year, from around 15 million to over 32 million, the proportion of credits that airlines can realistically access remains significantly constrained. This is due to a combination of host-country authorization requirements, Article 6 progress, and the availability of insurance to de-risk transactions.

Future Buyers in the Carbon Market

The Future Buyers in the Voluntary Carbon Market

AlliedOffsets latest report analyzes future demand in the voluntary carbon market (VCM), identifying the companies, sectors and regions most likely to drive an estimated $2.27 billion in carbon credit purchases. Using advanced Likelihood to Buy modeling, we find that abatement potential, headquarter location, internal carbon pricing, and the presence of a net-zero target are among the most influential predictors of market participation.  Sectors with medium-to-high likelihood to buy include airlines, consumer goods, financial services, technology and telecommunications, and industrials and manufacturing. Among returning buyers, energy and technology drive the largest projected financial impact, while aviation is the biggest growth driver among new entrants due to compliance requirements under the CORSIA framework. The report also provides insights for credit suppliers, brokers and market participants seeking to understand where the next wave of VCM demand will emerge.

Carbon Market Trends Report

Voluntary Carbon Market 2025 Review: Emerging Trends for 2026

AlliedOffsets’ report provides a data-driven overview of how the voluntary carbon market evolved in 2025, highlighting where growth has returned, where risks remain, and how buyer behavior is changing. Key findings The voluntary carbon market returned to growth in 2025, with rising retirements, record offtakes, and total market value surpassing $10 billion. Demand remained concentrated among fewer buyers, geographies, and project types, despite higher overall volumes. Carbon removals gained market share, with both technical and nature-based removals leading offtake and retirement activity. Policy and integrity signals strengthened, with CCP-labelled retirements up over 95% and around 50% of schemes accepting or considering offsets.

Risk Mitigation

Data-Driven Approaches to Managing Risk in the Voluntary Carbon Market

Our risk report examines the reputational, financial, and regulatory risks shaping today’s Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM), and how data-driven tools can help manage them. In this report, we explore buyer and investor exposure to low-quality credits, the growing impact of price volatility and reversal risks, and how robust carbon markets data can support transparent and resilient market participation.

Carbon Removal

AlliedOffsets’ Carbon Removal Outlook Report

AlliedOffsets’ latest research reveals the scale and cost of carbon removal required to reach net zero by 2050. The analysis finds that reaching net zero by 2050 will require gigaton-scale carbon removal, 1.3-5 trillions in annual investment, and rapid scaling of key technologies including Direct Air Capture (DAC), Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS), and biochar. This report draws on over 60 studies and academic papers and modeling from AlliedOffsets’ Carbon Removal Module. It provides a comparative analysis of the scalability, costs, and investment pathways of different CDR technologies, helping investors, corporates, and policymakers understand where and how capital should flow.
