Australia Carbon Link May Spur EU Panel, Accenture Says

Linking with Australia’s carbon market may spur the European Union to set up an independent panel to help manage demand and supply in its own program, improving governance, according to Accenture Plc.

The structure would need to be independent of nations while including input from governments and national or European agencies, Mauricio Bermudez Neubauer, a London-based lead consultant on carbon markets at Accenture, said July 15 in a phone interview.
