Read the story →Who we are
Article 6 Network (article6.net) is a Swiss non-profit, member-led, Geneva-based Association. The Paris Agreement carbon market is the only globally-compliant carbon market in the world with one global rulebook (The Paris Agreement), one global framework (Article 6) and one global system built on host-country authorisation, national registries, corresponding adjustments and UN oversight. The Network educates all the parties that can use it (governments & the private sector), makes the policy case for scaling it, publishes its reference intelligence and connects its participants.
Our missionThe market
Our Article 6 Radar has aggregated >1,775 Article 6 headlines since January 2025. The UNEP Copenhagen Climate Centre Article 6 Pipeline holds 6,541 data points (Oct. 2026). The Article 6.4 Supervisory Body has adopted its first methodology and approved the first issuances under the Paris Agreement Crediting Mechanism (PACM), and the first large sovereign ITMO transactions are expected to close at COP31.
The gap
The established carbon market bodies grew up around the voluntary carbon market (VCM). IETA covers all emissions trading; ICVCM and VCMI set voluntary-market integrity and claims rules. Government groups such as the Article 6 Ambition Alliance, Japan’s A6IP Center and the regional carbon market alliances serve states, not market participants. Article 6 Network is the carbon market voice of the Paris Agreement.
Article 6 Demand
Article 6 global demand is driven by national compliance (NDC and/or EU Targets), companies and investors that want internationally compliant credits (highest integrity), and other compliance schemes: CORSIA’s need for authorised, adjusted units. SBTi has validated targets for 12,092 companies, each a potential Article 6 developer, buyer or investor. The market is estimated at $180bn by 2050 (Bloomberg NEF, 2025--base model & min carbon price).
