Mobilising Capital for Carbon Projects under the GX-ETS

Here are some key takeaways from the report

• The transition of the GX-ETS to a mandatory compliance scheme could generate significant demand for carbon credits, with potential use of up to 60 million credits per year if the full 10% allowance is utilised.

• Scaling issuance under the J-Credit and JCM schemes to meet potential future demand could require investment in excess of  1 trillion JPY. 

• Several key levers across the public and private sectors could be utilised to support market development and activity.
