LONDON (Reuters) - New European Union proposals to limit the use of industrial gas carbon offsets in its emissions trading scheme from 2013 could be a boon for reeling carbon brokers as exchanges wait for clarity before they alter their offerings.
EU climate chief Connie Hedegaard said on Wednesday she is considering post-2012 limits for the use of offsets, called Certified Emissions Reductions (CERs), in the wake of concerns over the environmental integrity of a United Nations carbon finance scheme.
