Carbon Market Data launches a new dataset on the CERs and ERUs used by EU ETS companies

Carbon Market Data is pleased to announce the launch of a new dataset giving detailed information on the CERs (Certified Emissions Credits) and ERUs (Emissions reduction Units) used for compliance by companies included in the European emissions trading scheme (EU ETS).

This newly available service offers high-value information to carbon traders and analysts on the CER and ERU trading strategies used by EU ETS companies.

The new dataset enables users to:

• search detailed information on the CERs and ERUs surrendered by the 900 largest EU ETS companies
• analyse the CER and ERU sourcing strategies of companies with information on the CDM and JI projects related
• for each company, view aggregated data by project type (HFC, N2O, landfill gas,...) and host country
• assess the carbon risk profile of companies in relation with their carbon sourcing strategy (project type, primary/secondary CERs/ERUs, issuance success rate,etc...) and provide a benchmark index

Detailed data on the EUAs (EU allowances), CERs and ERUs surrendered for 2008 and 2009 compliance by individual installations are now also accessible on our online data platform, the World Emissions Trading Schemes Database. These data can be accessed, under the 'EU ETS' and 'EEA' tabs, in the installation interface.

Data on CERs and ERUs used for compliance by EU ETS companies can be found under the menu 'COMPANIES' of the World ETS Database. In the company's interface, just click on the link entitled 'CERs and ERUs surrendered'.

The free version of the EU ETS Companies Database includes all iron and steel companies.
