In Part 2 of The State of the Carbon Market, Dumo Shezi and Henk SA dive deeper into the numbers, modelling how carbon credit supply and demand could evolve in South Africa through 2035. They unpack three possible futures for the market, and the where the potential supply gaps may occur, and explore the policy and private sector actions needed to close them.
Key points of discussion:
• Forecasting demand and supply for the South Africa Carbon Market
• Scenario analysis: business as usual, green South Africa, grey South Africa
• The implications of a supply-demand gap for the market
• Policy interventions to boost credit generation
• How the private sector must take bold action in carbon project development
