LONDON (Reuters) - European carbon emissions futures rose on Thursday, boosted by improved financial markets and a firmer oil price, traders said.
EU Allowances for December delivery were up 16 cents or 1.05 percent at 15.43 euros ($18.98) a tonne at 0657 GMT, with light volume at 1,507 lots traded.
"There is some stop-lossing at 15.40. The Nikkei is up 3 percent, oil is looking firmer and carbon is following that sentiment," an emissions trader said.
