Rapid political shifts are reshaping the future of carbon markets and clean fuel policy. In the U.S., President Trump’s recent executive actions mark a significant turning point, with aggressive moves toward energy development and regulatory rollback. Meanwhile, new political dynamics in Canada — including the federal election — are poised to influence environmental commitments. Across EMEA, Latin America, and APAC, evolving regulatory frameworks and climate strategies are redefining investment risks and opportunities.

This webinar will deliver a critical mid-year check-in on how these regional changes are affecting the global low-carbon economy.

Key Discussion Topics:

• U.S. Policy Reversals and Advancements:
  Join us for a mid-year review of significant changes in U.S. carbon and clean fuels policies. We’ll explore executive orders, federal agency budget and staffing adjustments, the withdrawal from the Paris Agreement, shifts in regulatory frameworks, key legislative developments, state program updates, and the designation of energy as a national emergency.
• Canada’s Political Transition:
  With Mark Carney elected as Prime Minister, Canada’s carbon policy landscape is entering a new chapter. We will dive into how Carney’s leadership can shape the future of carbon pricing, clean fuels programs, provincial emissions reduction targets, and what shifts we can expect in the coming years.
• EMEA Market Dynamics: We’ll explore recent updates to EU ETS policies and the global impact of the EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism on international trade. The session will also highlight the development of new emissions trading systems in countries like Turkey. Additional topics include the planned expansion of the UK ETS to cover the marine sector starting in 2026, and the forthcoming EU ETS 2, which is set to extend carbon pricing to the transportation and buildings sectors by 2027.
• Latin America’s Outlooks:
  Insights into LATAM’s carbon pricing efforts and the progress on national legal frameworks to support cooperative approaches under the Paris Agreement and CORSIA.
• APAC Market Developments: 
  Looking into the region’s carbon market expansion and recent price trends, examining key drivers behind market movements, policy shifts, and trading behavior. The discussion will cover scheme updates, upcoming timelines, and regulatory milestones shaping the region’s evolving carbon landscape.
