ICAO CORSIA Carbon Offsetting & CCU Fuel Rules (2024)

Market Active Verified

The ICAO Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA) entered its first phase in 2024, involving 126 member states. The policy’s heart is the mandatory use of certified carbon credits or CCU-based e-fuels (SAF) to meet carbon-neutral growth targets. Updated for 2024-2025, the framework establishes rigorous certification for the CO2 sources used in fuel synthesis, ensuring they meet strict sustainability criteria. CORSIA provides the most critical high-value end-market for the global CCU industry, converting captured CO2 into a premium aviation commodity and serving as the primary policy vehicle for reaching Net Zero Aviation by 2050.
