Where Carbon Meets Capital: Financing Climate Projects in the Carbon Markets

Speaker: Cédric Joutet

Carbon credits used to be something you bought at the end. Now, future credit revenue is helping fund climate projects from the start. With Article 6 finally live and blended finance at record levels, but still trillions short of what is needed, the worlds of carbon and capital are merging fast. Join us to learn how carbon revenue de-risks project finance, what makes a credit credible enough to bank on, and how blended structures close the deals pure commercial money cannot.

Who Should Attend:

  • Sustainability leads and corporate buyers navigating the post-Article 6 market.
  • Investors and DFIs working in climate finance.
  • Project developers seeking to understand how carbon revenue can unlock their financing.
  • Advisors and consultants working across the carbon and capital markets.

What We Will Cover:

  • The two worlds and why they are merging: the three forces converging in 2026
  • What changed in the carbon market: Article 6 is live and the integrity premium is now visible in prices
  • Carbon revenue as a financing tool: how a forward credit sale becomes collateral and shifts a project’s risk profile
  • Blended finance in practice: what actually attracts private capital and the red flags that kill deals
  • A deal walkthrough: from project concept to credit methodology to financing structure to buyer
