Carbon market intelligence

Trace the markets, shape the future

Carbon credit markets are testing how decisions are made

Carbon credit markets are no longer defined by price alone. Decisions now depend on who is buying, how demand is evolving, where eligibility applies, and which credits can be used for compliance.

Fastmarkets Carbon delivers carbon market intelligence that combines independent pricing with company insights, demand analytics, regulatory context, and forward-looking outlooks. Together, these capabilities help market participants understand how carbon credit markets are clearing today and where pricing and eligibility risks are likely to emerge.

All analysis is produced by specialist price reporters under transparent, published methodologies and grounded in verified engagement across the global carbon credit value chain.

This brochure explains how Fastmarkets brings pricing, demand, company, and regulatory intelligence together to understand how carbon credit markets are clearing. It shows how these insights support pricing decisions, procurement planning, and eligibility assessment across voluntary and compliance pathways.
