The challenge for African nations is to harness this opportunity, attract investments in renewable energy, and assert their role in shaping global climate outcomes.

Unlocking Africa’s potential in the global carbon market: Accelerating emissions trading in a shifting energy paradigm

Emissions trading, often referred to as “cap and trade,” is a system where a limit is placed on the quantity of pollution that companies are permitted to emit. These companies are issued tradable emissions allowances equivalent to the set limit and can choose to trade these allowances with other companies governed by the same system.

Unfortunately, Africa’s participation in the carbon market faces several key challenges that limit its ability to fully benefit from trading carbon credits. One significant obstacle is the lack of robust policy frameworks and regulatory mechanisms to support carbon trading at both national and regional levels.Support journalism driven by facts, created by Nigerians for Nigerians.
