Study estimates the potential carbon offset credit supply to the CORSIA scheme
This discussion paper estimates the potential supply of carbon offset credits to meet demand from international aviation under CORSIA under a number of different scenarios which include different types of restrictions imposed on the eligibility of offset credits.
Study analyses the provisions that could be adopted and implemented under the Paris Agreement to avoid double counting
This discussion paper assesses how robust accounting could be implemented under the Paris Agreement in order to avoid double counting between nationally determined contributions (NDCs) and CORSIA.
This final report summarizes the results of the BMU activity "Analysis and Evaluation of the CORSIA Offsetting Mechanism for use in International Aviation".
The discussion paper assesses options for improving the current Emissions Unit Eligibility Criteria (EUCs) used for the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), with the goal of ensuring the scheme’s environmental integrity.
