Strategic Guide to the Voluntary Carbon Market Ecosystem
Last updated: September 2022
This guide provides a comprehensive overview of how the voluntary carbon market operates today.
The voluntary carbon market provides an opportunity for organisations to accelerate their efforts to reduce their climate impact. Many firms, however, have no or limited experience of carbon markets.
This guide provides such firms with an introduction to the voluntary carbon market ecosystem. It explains the market’s history, how it differs to regulated markets, why it is growing fast, how carbon credits are created and transacted, and gives some examples of the different organisations operating in the market today. More detailed insights on the voluntary carbon market ecosystem are available to Trove’s subscribers and advisory clients.

INTRODUCTORY GUIDE TO FORESTRY CARBON
Last updated: December 2022
This guide answers the 10 most frequently asked questions about forest carbon in the voluntary carbon market.
Forest biomes play an important role in moderating atmospheric CO₂, protecting biodiversity, and supporting local livelihoods. In Dec 2022, projects that involve forest carbon made up 13% of all projects in the VCM but issued 30% of all carbon credits for 2022. Despite this, there is limited understanding on how these projects work, what risks they have, and how they differ from one another.
This guide provides a comprehensive overview over forest carbon projects in the voluntary carbon market. It explains the nature and extent of forest carbon, the different types of forest carbon projects, and the potential future role of forest carbon in the voluntary carbon market.
