Global Climate and Carbon Finance Market: Regional Insights
- North America: The U.S. and Canada have been active in climate and carbon finance, but the approaches differ. While the U.S. has seen a mix of state-level initiatives, federal policies, and market-based approaches, such as carbon pricing schemes at the regional level, Canada has implemented a nationwide carbon pricing system. Both countries have also witnessed growing interest from investors and financial institutions in sustainable investments.
- Europe: Europe is the largest market for carbon trading, driven by the European Union Emission Trading Scheme (EU ETS), the world\'s first and largest carbon market. The EU is committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by at least 40% by 2030 compared to 1990 levels.
- Asia Pacific: The Asia Pacific region, including countries like China, India, Japan, and Australia, has been experiencing significant growth in renewable energy investments and climate finance activities. Asia Pacific accounts for approximately 30% of the market share. China launched its national carbon market in 2021, which is expected to become the world\'s largest carbon trading market.
