IETA Joins Alliance to Support CORSIA Implementation

IETA has joined the Supporting Alliance for CORSIA Eligible Emissions Unit (EEU) Supply, an initiative coordinated by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) that brings together governments, airlines, and carbon market organisations to expand the supply of high-integrity emissions units for the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA).

The Alliance has now grown to 50 participating entities, with the Governments of Guyana, Madagascar, the United Kingdom, Zambia, and Zimbabwe recently signing the Aviation Carbon Market Compact and joining the initiative.

IETA joins the Alliance alongside the Verified Carbon Market Collaborative (VCMC), Sylvera, and Airbus, providing technical support to help scale the market and strengthen supply.

"The success of CORSIA will depend on collaboration across the entire value chain and IETA is proud to support this effort and to work with host countries and partners to unlock the full potential of Article 6 and CORSIA," said Dirk Forrister, IETA President and CEO.

The Alliance aims to support the availability of high-quality emissions units to meet growing demand from the aviation sector as CORSIA implementation advances.
