Platts Price Benchmarks and Key Assessments

Our key areas for Platts price assessments in the Voluntary Carbon Markets include carbon credits for:

  •  Household devices
  • Nature based avoidance
  • Industrial pollutants
  • Tech based carbon capture
  • Nature based carbon capture
  • Low carbon fuel standards (LCFS)

Markets in Focus

First to market Emissions Adjusted REC prices calculate and publish the emissions impact of each REC instrument; enabling more impact-efficient trading.

Buyers purchase RECs in order to have an impact on their emissions. However, there is an information gap for buyers who can’t see the impact of their procurement.

Not all RECs have the same emissions impact and crucially emissions impact is not currently reported for any REC. As a result, the carbon reduction potential of individual REC instruments is not captured in current pricing.

Platts Emissions Adjusted REC prices bring transparency to renewables-based emissions impacts.
