Quarterly Thesis Q2 2026

Structural tightness in EU ETS persists through Phase IV recalibration

The Market Stability Reserve continues to absorb surplus allowances at a measured cadence, and front-loaded Phase IV cap reductions are pulling forward the abatement curve. tanso's central scenario places the EUA composite in a €88–€102 range over the next four quarters, with downside risk anchored to industrial demand softness in chemicals and steel.

In the voluntary segment, post-COP integrity reforms are bifurcating supply: Article 6.4-aligned removal credits trade at a widening premium to legacy avoidance instruments. We expect this dispersion to deepen as corporate disclosure regimes mature.
