Last year, governments raised about US$26 billion charging for carbon emissions – a figure taken from “Carbon Pricing Watch 2016” jointly prepared by the World Bank Group and Ecofys. Ecofys is proud to be able to support the World Bank Groups key ambition to bring down global emissions and drive investment into cleaner options.
The past four years Ecofys has assisted the World Bank in writing the annual report State and Trends of Carbon Pricing. The report is the authoritative reference point for carbon pricing information and provides data and insights of the work of the Carbon Pricing Leadership Coalition. Recognized by the international community, the State and Trends report provides insights used for the climate negotiations and, in turn, reports on their progress. The 2016 edition will focus on the alignment of carbon pricing with other climate policies. While a future outlook was released in May, the full 2016 report will be published later this year.
