Registered number: 452021 European carbon prices rose over the week , supported by tighter supply at auctions and technical buying toward the end of the period. A cautious recovery in investor appetite contributed to the rise, as positioning data indicated funds increased net long exposure after ten consecutive weeks of reductions. Despite uncertainty over upcoming policy updates, EUAs expiring in Dec2026 settled higher for the week, trading at 72.84 EUR/tonne.
