Carbon Update: EU Market Momentum & California’s Legal Landscape for Investors
Tuesday, June 17, 2025
15:00 - 16:00 BST, 16:00 - 17:00 CEST

As compliance carbon markets evolve globally, the EU and California stand out for their dynamic policy shifts and growing investor relevance.

In Europe, the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) is expanding to sectors like maritime shipping and tightening aviation rules. The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is also reshaping global trade by pressuring partners to adopt carbon pricing. Meanwhile, speculation around a potential EU–UK market linkage is reviving UK carbon prices.

In California, Governor Newsom’s proposal to extend the state’s cap-and-trade program to 2045 provides long-term certainty and supports net-zero goals. However, this comes amid new federal pressure: a recent executive order from President Trump challenges state-level climate action, casting legal and political uncertainty over California’s program.

Both regions highlight a broader global trend—compliance carbon markets are expanding and maturing, creating compelling opportunities for investors navigating policy-driven volatility.

Join KraneShares Head of Climate Luke Oliver, Climate Finance Partners’ Eron Bloomgarden, and Rick Saines ONM, Managing Director at Pollination Law LLC and leading carbon lawyer, for an update on global carbon markets with a focus on California’s legal landscape.
