The advent of Thanksgiving in the US and posturing from governments ahead of international negotiations reduced demand this week.
Bread and butter Indian wind VCUs are $4.25 offered with exotic VCUs like Thai biogas at a $1.75 premium. Chinese VCUs continue to attract very little demand at present Gold Standard VER transactions are increasing slightly after a quiet 11 months with small volumes being traded at €6-7/t spot and forwards around €5. US CRT V09 agricultural methane is $7.50 bid amid constrained supply, while pre-09 vintages are struggling to find buyers due to market uncertainty of future grandfathering eligibility for older credits into a future US cap and trade scheme.

Industry relents to pressure ahead of December’s climate conference.
The global air transport industry–airlines, aircraft manufacturers and airport operators–has pledged to reduce carbon emissions. This comes in advance of the Copenhagen climate conference in December and is an attempt to pre-empt more immediate and stringent measures designed to curb air travel, in particular extension of the E.U. carbon-trading scheme to air operators.

There is a growing consensus in the US of the pending climate legislation being delayed in the Senate, possibly to Q1 or even Q2 next year. This has removed some of the urgency seen in previous weeks, particularly for demand of CRT credits, the current choice US credit. Accordingly prices stuck at $7/8, bid/offered while supply ramps up.

VER demand was again firmer than in previous weeks with issued Indian RE pre-CDM VCUs transacting at $4–$5, and Chinese VCUs discounted at $2.75-$3.25 levels.
African micro-scale projects remain the preference for Gold Standard VER interest with soon-to-be-issued credits favoured. African GS VERs are priced at €9/€11 bid/offered, a premium of €2-3 over non-African, issued GS VERs which is causing some demand to revert back to issued credits. Forward credits are €5-€6 bid/offered.

Growth Energy filed new scientific data last week challenging California’s proposal to use international indirect land use change assessments as part of the state’s Low Carbon Fuel Standard (LCFS). In April, the California Air Resources Board (CARB) initially approved the LCFS regulation which included provisions that could ultimately eliminate corn ethanol from the California market.
