[Column] [ESG Strategies for Business] Vol.34 The National Carbon Market Policy and the ETS Concept—How Will the Shift from the Voluntary to the Compliance Market Unfold?

The article titled “[ESG Strategies for Business] Vol.34 The National Carbon Market Policy and the ETS Concept—How Will the Shift from the Voluntary to the Compliance Market Unfold?”, contributed by Attorney Mitsuru Misawa, has been published in the Jiji Press Malaysia Edition (issued on July 22, 2026).

While the previous issue provided an overview of the current landscape of Malaysia’s decarbonization policy, this issue focuses on the National Carbon Market Policy (NCMP) and the envisioned domestic Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS), examining the potential impact on Japanese companies of the transition from the voluntary to the compliance carbon market. It covers the outline of the NCMP announced in April 2026, the background of the ETS concept as set out in the Climate Change Bill (RUUPIN) and the 13th Malaysia Plan, and the practical issues Japanese companies should begin preparing for, such as tracking emissions data and establishing MRV systems.
