Singapore Carbon Market Alliance

Fostering a vibrant Article 6 carbon market

High-quality carbon credits can support investments in emerging climate technologies and nature-based solutions, and complement the decarbonisation strategies of companies to achieve their climate goals. Singapore is seeing increasing interest from companies in carbon credits to meet their global sustainability goals. Access to carbon credits will be especially important for companies in hard-to-abate sectors where low-carbon technologies need time to be commercially available.

The Singapore Carbon Market Alliance (SCMA) is the first platform in Singapore focused on high-integrity carbon credits that are aligned with Article 6 of the Paris Agreement – and the latest initiative to increase Singapore’s leadership as a regional node for carbon services and trusted carbon markets.

A joint initiative by the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB) and IETA (formerly the International Emissions Trading Association), the SCMA directly connects leading international suppliers and enablers of carbon markets to Singapore-based corporates with a demonstrated commitment to sustainability and interest in high-quality carbon credits.

A robust carbon market, with appropriate guardrails and incentives, coupled with high-quality carbon credits will be key levers in bridging the financing gap and accelerating climate action. The SCMA is a display of commitment towards building an ecosystem of players with the shared goal of responsibly developing and actively participating in the carbon markets. As an investor in the carbon markets, we support and encourage the cross-sharing of insights to deepen knowledge within the industry in order to drive greater financing towards climate solutions.

Google is pleased to be a launch member of the SCMA. We commend the EDB for convening such a forum in Singapore that helps build and exchange industry knowledge on how high-quality credits can channel financing and support climate action.

Changi Airport Group (CAG) is committed to high-quality carbon offsets, as part of its wider sustainability ambition. The SCMA will be a valuable platform to build our networks and knowledge for trusted carbon markets. By joining the SCMA, we hope to drive the integrity and traceability of carbon offsets with other members. CAG launched Changi Carbon Offsets in November 2023. Passengers can now offset their carbon footprint when they fly, even if their airline does not have its own offset programme. CAG has taken the lead to offset the carbon footprint for all its business travel.
