In the first instalment of this two-part series, Emma Reinecke and Henk Sa lay the groundwork for understanding South Africa’s carbon market. They explore what carbon credits are, how the country’s carbon tax works, and the role of the Carbon Offset Administration System (COAS) in managing credit supply and retirements. This episode sets the stage for a deeper dive into how we see the market evolving in Part 2.

• Overview of South Africa’s carbon tax and its trajectory to 2030
• Introduction to the COAS registry: listing, retirement, and stockpile
• Market trends in credit issuance and use
• Types of carbon projects and major buyers
• How carbon credits fit into South Africa’s climate commitments
