Taiwan Carbon Solution Exchange and National Taiwan University discuss agricultural transformation under the ETS
Sources of information February 10, 2026 | Central News Agency (Chinese) |
Taiwan's Carbon Solution Exchange (TCX) and the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE) partnered with National Taiwan University (NTU) to host a seminar on natural carbon sinks, soil carbon sequestration, and the circular economy under the planned emissions trading system (TW ETS), set for simulated trial in late 2026. TCX CEO Ms. Seren Chen noted that combining mandatory ETS with voluntary carbon credit offsets represents the prevailing international hybrid carbon pricing model, and that the Ministry of Environment's newly published soil carbon sink methodology and circular economy roadmap draft will enable enterprises to convert farmland reductions into tradable carbon assets. Experts discussed accelerating soil carbon sequestration using agricultural residuals, establishing buffer reserve mechanisms for reversal risks, and introducing soil spectrum analysis to shorten measurement periods. The Ministry of Agriculture confirmed ongoing development of soil carbon storage maps and voluntary greenhouse gas reduction demonstration projects through public-private collaboration.
