Platts launches daily Oregon and Washington Clean Fuel Standard Program Credit assessments

Platts, part of S&P Global Commodity Insights, has launched daily price assessments for Oregon and Washington Clean Fuel Standard Program credits, effective June 17, 2024.

After consultation with the market, Platts has seen interest in price assessments for both the Oregon and Washington Clean Fuel Standard Program credits.

Platts has launched current-quarter and next-quarter Clean Fuel Standard Program credit price assessments for each state program. Each assessment will roll to the next quarter on the first publishing day after the 14th of the last month of the quarter.

The assessments consider market information reported to Platts and published throughout the day, including firm bids and offers, trades and indicative values, as well as any other data deemed relevant to the assessment process.

Platts assesses a minimum traded volume of 1,000 mt.

The Oregon Clean Fuel Program and Washington Clean Fuel Standard prices will be published as an outright price in US dollars per metric ton of carbon dioxide equivalent.

The assessments reflect a 1330 Houston time market close and would follow the Platts US publishing schedule.
