TRANSPORT: Aviation

Airlines operating international routes must offset CO2 emissions that exceed 85% of 2019 levels under CORSIA, with Phase 2 mandatory for 193 states from 2027. Supply of fully eligible credits is structurally short, and prices are expected to rise materially as demand increases. ACT has traded over 1.5 million CORSIA Eligible Emission Units and works with a network of 100+ climate project developers to source compliant credits across correspondingly adjusted, LoA-backed, and portfolio approaches.

CORSIA compliance obligations are determined by the states connecting each route, and obligations differ depending on whether you operate intra-EEA, transatlantic, or into non-participating states. Our aviation specialists across EMEA, North America, LATAM, and Asia have on-the-ground presence in the markets where your routes operate, and the structuring experience to manage overlapping obligations where both apply.

Carbon market analysts predict a shortage of CORSIA-eligible credits in both Phase 1 and Phase 2, driven by slow host-country authorization and rising demand from compliance and voluntary markets. Our aviation specialists help you assess your offsetting requirements, choose between correspondingly adjusted credits, LoA-backed credits, and portfolio approaches, and execute across spot, forward, and options structures.

CORSIA eligibility criteria, host-country authorization requirements, and the interplay between CORSIA and regional ETS frameworks are all in active development. Our aviation team tracks changes across ICAO, EU ETS, and UK ETS and publishes regulatory updates covering what each shift means for your compliance position and credit procurement strategy.
