Registered number: 452021 European carbon prices climbed last week, with EUAs exceeding 90 EUR/t for the first time since August 2023, driven by a robust front month TTF gas rally, firm ‑auction outcomes, and tighter coal-to-gas spreads raising marginal abatement costs. EUAs expiring in Dec-26 soared by about 3% for the week, closing at 92 EUR/tonne. 80859095100105Dec26Dec27Dec28Dec29€/tonneThe change in Carbon Prices09.01.2616.01.261.15601.15801.16001.16201.16401.16601.16801.17000.86500.86550.86600.86650.86700.86750.868009.01.2612.01.2613.01.2614.01.2615.01.2616.01.26€/$€/£The change in €/£/$ €/£€/$The U.S. dollar rose against the Euro last week, supported by strong U.S. economic data, which improved labor market outlooks.

The EUR/GBP rate ended rather flat at 0.8670 amid a lack of UK data and choppy broader market conditions.
