| ***November 2026 Notice: Regulatory amendments have been made regarding the use of offset credits. For the 2027-2028 compliance period, the limit on the use of offset credits is 6%. In addition, the use of offset credits that were not issued by Québec may not exceed five-sixths of that limit. Accordingly, the use of credits not issued by Québec is limited to a maximum of 5% of the emissions to be covered. To ensure that you can benefit from the full 6% limit on the use of offset credits, announcements posted on this platform will identify offset credits issued by Québec. |
The Quebec Business Council on the Environment (CPEQ) is pleased to offer this free Platform for the use of all businesses subject to the Quebec Cap and Trade System for Greenhouse Gas Emissions, as well as for all participants in the carbon market under the Western Climate Initiative Inc. (WCI) who hold a registered account with the Compliance Instrument Tracking System Service (CITSS) and who wish to post offers concerning the sale and purchase of carbon credits.
The objective of this Platform is to facilitate carbon credit exchanges, regulated by the WCI, by putting potential buyers and sellers in contact with each other. In order to do this, a potential buyer or seller must post an Invitation to Negotiate on the Platform, by completing the correct form online or by responding to an Invitation to Negotiate which has already been published on the Platform.
To learn more about this Platform, we invite you to consult the History section, our Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ), and the tutorial.
