Climate/Energy Drop-In: Carbon price outlook – More pain, then big gain

Carbon prices have been falling on the back of lower natural gas prices and reduced European industrial activity. There’s a case for recovery, driven by a combination of macro, market and regulatory factors – but when and how strong will it be?

To mark the launch of our EU carbon price coverage and forecasts, Caroline Bain, our Chief Commodities Economist, Climate Economics head David Oxley and Climate Economist Hamad Hussain will be discussing the near to long-term market outlook. During this 20-minute briefing, the team will be answering your questions as they address key issues, including:

• What the latest indicators say about the short-term outlook for the carbon price over 2024 and 2025;
• How reforms to the carbon market have made it a more investable proposition over the long term;
• Lessons from the EU for other carbon pricing schemes.
