Description

Report Overview

The voluntary carbon offset market enables businesses and individuals to purchase carbon credits to compensate for their greenhouse gas emissions, operating outside compliance systems like cap-and-trade. These offsets fund projects such as reforestation, renewable energy, and methane capture, verified by third-party standards like Verra or Gold Standard. Demand is driven by corporate sustainability goals, ESG commitments, and consumer pressure, while supply depends on project developers and credit issuers. The market has grown rapidly, reaching over $2 billion in 2023, but faces challenges like transparency, credit quality, and greenwashing concerns. Pricing varies widely based on project type, co-benefits, and certification rigor, with nature-based solutions often commanding premiums. Regulatory scrutiny and standardization efforts are increasing to improve credibility and scalability. The market is poised for expansion as net-zero pledges multiply, though competition from compliance markets and evolving carbon removal technologies could reshape dynamics.

The global Voluntary Carbon Offsets market size was estimated at USD 1078.22 million in 2024 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 25.28% during the forecast period.
