Report highlights

An opportunity worth up to US$8.5bn

ASEAN could supply up to 348mn CORSIA-eligible units over the next decade, worth between US$1.6bn and US$8.5bn and supporting nearly 32,000 jobs. With the region's progress on Article 6 and NDC implementation, this opportunity is within reach.

Authorisation without risking NDCs

Governments can authorise CORSIA units and apply corresponding adjustments without putting their NDCs at risk. The report sets out six practical steps, from mapping CORSIA-aligned supply against national emissions sources to piloting authorisations.

Airlines can procure early and source widely

The report outlines how airlines can develop a clear procurement strategy across legal, finance, and sustainability teams, run pilot transactions to test the approach, and hedge risk through staggered, diversified sourcing of eligible units.

CORSIA is fast becoming one of the most consequential compliance carbon markets in the world, and ASEAN is well placed to help meet its growing demand. This new report from Abatable, Boeing, and GenZero, sets out the scale of the CORSIA opportunity for ASEAN: up to 348mn eligible units over the next decade, worth between US$1.6bn and US$8.5bn to the economies that host them, alongside nearly 32,000 jobs.

Drawing on a database of more than 5,300 carbon projects and the views of the airlines, governments, and developers shaping this market, it offers clear, practical recommendations for governments, airlines, and wider stakeholders ready to turn that potential into credible climate and economic outcomes.
