INITIATIVES

In 2022, IETA launched  the Business Partnership for Market Implementation (B-PMI) to complement the World Bank’s Partnership for Market Implementation (PMI). Through the B-PMI, IETA aims to support the implementation of carbon pricing instruments in PMI countries through private sector capacity building and engagement with policymakers.  

IETA has partnered with researchers from the the Center for Global Sustainability at the University of Maryland to produce a number of studies about the potential of international carbon market approaches, identifying how Article 6 implementation could encourage businesses to accelerate climate action and nations to advance more ambitious commitments.

Together with the World Bank and Government of Singapore, IETA is one of the founding partners of CAD Trust, a decentralised metadata platform that links, aggregates and harmonises all major carbon credit registry data to enhance transparent accounting in line with Article 6 of the Paris Agreement.

ICROA represents the interests of service providers in promoting emissions reductions and offsetting to the highest standards of environmental integrity and in support of the Paris Agreement.

IETA’s High-Level Criteria for Carbon Geostorage Activities are a set of principles to govern the development of tradable reductions and removals using technology-based carbon sink enhancements that can assume a major role in achieving the net zero goal of the Paris Agreement.
