Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The CORSIA Scheme Explained: Demand, Supply, and Market Dynamics - Juan Carlos Arredondo Brun
Q: What drives demand in phase one and how does Abatable view the numbers?
Demand is driven by airlines obligated under ICAO to offset emissions, with Abatable modeling showing comparable figures to ICAO and IATA, projecting hundreds of millions of tons over the first phase, depending on growth factors and route activity.
The CORSIA Scheme Explained: Demand, Supply, and Market Dynamics - Juan Carlos Arredondo Brun
Q: What is Corsia and how does it work from a high-level perspective?
Corsia compensates the emissions of international aviation by using carbon credits that meet ICAO criteria, with credits issued by established carbon standards and subject to verification, with a phased approach including pilot and compliance phases.
The Future of Global Carbon Credits: Fragmented Patchwork or Unified System? - Stephanie Russo
Q: How can policy certainty and a clear penalty framework change airline and developer behavior?
With clear rules, upfront costs, and a defined consequences framework, airlines and developers would have greater confidence to invest, contract, and lock in long-term supply, reducing risk and enabling more forward-offtake agreements.
The Future of Global Carbon Credits: Fragmented Patchwork or Unified System? - Stephanie Russo
Q: What are the main bottlenecks in Corsia that could derail its effectiveness?
Key bottlenecks include the bottleneck around letters of authorization and corresponding adjustments, the high cost and availability of insurance, and the lack of a transparent price discovery mechanism for CA, which together create uncertainty and limit liquidity.
Inside the Complex World of Corsia: The Bottlenecks and Opportunities - Valerio Magliulo
Q: What are the challenges with Corsia's current phases?
Phase one has a massive shortfall due to insufficient projects gaining accreditation, and phase two is expected to further exacerbate this issue without proper governmental support.
