The three-phases of research and engagement (2008–2023) of the ESRC-funded Centre for Climate Change Economics and Policy (CCCEP) ended in December 2023. All CCCEP publications are available on this legacy website. Any new outputs will be uploaded to the site between 2024 and 2028.

Enabling carbon markets: carbon accounting, benchmarking and disclosure

Project 4c

Project staff: Craig Mackenzie

This project considers the extent to which market activities can be informed by reliable forms of carbon accounting, and the extent to which they allow meaningful benchmarks of corporate performance on climate change.

Like project 4d, it seeks to improve the prospects for market-based approaches to climate change mitigation.
