Carbon Trading

ICE daily CER price saw another day of cautious gains, reaching 1.11 EURO (+14.77%).  The gains were driven mainly by Italy's signal it would support a 1.2 billion carbon credit set aside (EUAs) in the EU ETS.  The EU plans to table the set aside decision on November 14 - but so far only Italy and the United Kingdom have officially endorsed the measure with Poland staunchly opposed.  Any such set aside decision must be unanimous to be binding.
