​This event is jointly organised by the Grantham Research Institute and AlliedOffsets<\/path><\/svg><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Carbon dioxide removal (CDR) is at an inflection point. As voluntary CDR markets mature and compliance frameworks begin to take shape, not least in the UK, the question of how to build markets that are credible, scalable, and policy-coherent has never been more pressing. This event will bring together leading stakeholders from across the CDR market to explore where markets, policy, and standards are heading, and what needs to happen to accelerate responsible deployment of CDR.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

​The event will begin with a networking breakfast, followed by the panel discussion and Q&A. The session will open with a short introduction to TRACEcdr (Transparent Reporting and Certification for CDR)<\/path><\/svg><\/a>, an interactive tool developed by the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment at LSE and powered by AlliedOffsets. It provides information on monitoring, reporting and verification (MRV) protocols and analyses the carbon accounting methodologies that underpin them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

​This session will feature a panel of experts across science, policy, and market development, including Jonathan Lindsell<\/strong> (Co-head of the GGR Deployment Team, DESNZ), Paul Zakkour<\/strong> (Consulting Director, Carbon Counts), Mai Bui<\/strong> (Director of Climate Science, Supercritical) and Anton Root<\/strong> (Co-founder, AlliedOffsets). The panel will explore key questions relating to which methodologies are scaling, how the market is evolving relative to public discourse, and the trade-offs between durability, scalability, cost, and co-benefits, as well as the role of traceability in reducing risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

​The session will provide a space for buyers, suppliers, researchers, and policymakers to engage with the latest insights and connect with others in the CDR market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

​Following the panel and Q&A, there will be time for informal networking with refreshments provided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
