Singapore Names Three Carbon-Rating Firms to Enhance Integrity of International Carbon Credits
Singapore’s National Environment Agency (NEA) has appointed three firms—BeZero Carbon Ltd, Calyx Global, Inc, and Sylvera Ltd—to provide independent assessments of carbon-credit methodologies and projects under its International Carbon Credit (ICC) Framework. This supports the ICC Framework, allowing companies to offset up to 5% of taxable emissions using eligible credits from 2024. The ratings panel will enhance governance and integrity in cross-border carbon credits, reinforcing investor confidence and Singapore’s leadership in Article 6 markets. This initiative highlights Singapore’s commitment to rigorous oversight and global carbon market governance.

Completion of the first international transfer of mitigation outcomes for JCM credits
The Joint Crediting Mechanism (JCM) between Thailand and Japan completed its first international transfer of mitigation outcomes at the Seventh Meeting of the Joint Committee on October 30, 2025. The project involved the introduction of a 5MW floating solar power system on an industrial water reservoir in Thailand (Project TH014). The transfer authorized 1,009 tCO2eq of Internationally Transferred Mitigation Outcomes (ITMOs) from the 2021 vintage. The Ministry of the Environment, Japan, is the acquiring entity, and the credits are fully authorized by Thailand.

PETRONAS CCS Ventures Sdn Bhd Receives Malaysia’s First Offshore Assessment Permit for Carbon Capture and Storage
Petronas CCS Ventures Sdn Bhd (PCCSV), a wholly owned unit of Petronas, has received Malaysia’s first offshore assessment permit for carbon capture and storage (CCS) at the Duyong field offshore Peninsular Malaysia. The permit, granted by the Malaysia Carbon Capture, Utilisation, and Storage Agency (MyCCUS) under the newly enacted Carbon Capture, Utilisation, and Storage Act (CCUS Act 2025), allows geological assessment to confirm the site’s feasibility as a carbon storage site. PCCSV collaborates with TotalEnergies and Mitsui under a Key Principles Agreement to advance technical studies with plans to move into front-end engineering design, aiming to establish a commercially viable CCS hub by 2029. This milestone positions Malaysia as a regional leader in CCS and supports national carbon reduction goals aligned with its Net Zero target for 2050.

EU approves 90% emissions cut by 2040, boosts carbon credit use to 5%
The EU has approved a 90% emissions reduction target for 2040, allowing up to 5% use of international carbon credits under its climate policy. This decision, after intense negotiations, aims to boost global carbon markets and align with the Paris Agreement’s Article 6. The plan also sets a 66.25%-72.5% reduction range for 2035. While significant for climate ambition, the implementation involves strict criteria and potential flexibility, with some concerns about economic impacts and the actual extent of emissions cuts.

Q4 CORSIA Credits Procurement Event Now Open
The Q4 CORSIA Credits Procurement Event is open from November 3 to 28, 2025, inviting airlines to purchase carbon credits through the IATA Aviation Carbon Exchange (ACE). This event offers 1 million credits from the Guyana Jurisdictional REDD+ project. In the recent Q3 event, credits sold at a fixed price of $22.55/tonne via the CBL GEO-CP1 spot contract, which acts as the market benchmark for CORSIA Phase 1. Airlines can monitor this benchmark using the Offset Compliance Simulator on IATA EcoHub. More procurement events are planned for 2026 with increasing supply of eligible emission units (EEUs).
