ETS & Compliance Programs

Access and Trade Global Carbon Markets with STX Group

Emissions Trading Systems (ETS) are market-based mechanisms designed to cap and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Operating under the “cap-and-trade” principle, they assign a financial value to carbon emissions, driving corporate climate action and innovation.
ETS programs, including the EU ETS, UK ETS and markets across North America and Asia, are increasingly shaping environmental policy and corporate decision-making. By offering transparent pricing and tradeable allowances, ETS instruments help regulated entities stay compliant and cost-effective while aligning with national climate targets.
