"EU ETS: The largest segment of the carbon offset/carbon credit compliance market, by type "
Based on type, the carbon offset/carbon credit market has been categorized into the voluntary market and the compliance market. The compliance market, on the other hand, has been sub segmented into EU ETS (Emission Trading Scheme), California Cap and Trade, and others. The EU ETS is a cap-and-trade system i.e., organizations are only allowed to emit a certain amount of emissions, and they can trade allowances (EUAs), the ETS equivalent to carbon credits, with each other.
"Avoidance/Removal projects segment is expected to emerge as the largest segment based on project type"
Avoidance offset are generated from activities that reduce emissions by preventing their release into the atmosphere. Carbon avoidance via direct carbon reduction measures directly reduce carbon footprint. Carbon avoidance via carbon offsets and direct carbon reduction measures improves air quality, protects ecosystems, and aids in climate change mitigation. The effectiveness of carbon avoidance depends on the type of project and reliability to execute. Carbon avoidance via direct carbon reduction measures is effective because it cuts emissions at their source.
"By End-User, the Transportation segment is expected to be the fastest growing market during the forecast period."
Based on end-user, the transportation segment is expected to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period. Reducing transport emissions is a priority for some of the governments worldwide. Motor vehicles accounted for a tremendously large share in the CO2 emissions from transportation. Personal vehicles and commercial trucks averaged more CO2 emissions per passenger mile or ton-mile than most other modes of transportation. Hence, the market is expected to grow significantly during the forecast period.
