도시 삼림 탄소배출권 시장 : 시장 분석 및 예측 - 유형별, 제품별, 서비스별, 기술별, 용도별, 프로세스별, 최종 사용자별, 솔루션별, 단계별(-2035년)

The global Urban Forest Carbon Credits Market is projected to grow from $502.4 million in 2025 to $785.4 million by 2035, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.6%. The Urban Forest Carbon Credits Market is driven by growing investment in urban tree planting, carbon sequestration, and nature-based climate solutions. In July 2025, the USDA Forest Service reported that San Diegos urban forest stored about 289,000 tons of carbon and removed approximately 34,600 tons of carbon annually, demonstrating measurable urban carbon-storage potential. Urban carbon-credit projects increasingly use tree inventories, remote sensing, carbon modeling, and monitoring systems to quantify sequestration and support verification. These developments are strengthening opportunities to generate carbon credits from urban tree planting, preservation, and forest-management activities.

The Type segment of the Urban Forest Carbon Credits Market includes Compliance Credits, Voluntary Credits, and Others. Voluntary Credits dominated the market in 2025 due to increasing corporate commitments to carbon neutrality, net-zero targets, and environmental sustainability initiatives. Companies are increasingly purchasing voluntary carbon credits generated through urban afforestation, reforestation, tree planting, and green-space development projects to compensate for residual emissions. Compliance Credits are expected to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period, supported by the expansion of carbon-pricing mechanisms, emissions regulations, and government-led climate policies. Increasing integration of urban forestry into formal carbon accounting and emerging regulatory frameworks is expected to create additional demand for compliance-based urban forest carbon credits.

The End User segment of the Urban Forest Carbon Credits Market includes Municipalities, Corporations, Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), and Others. Corporations dominated the market in 2025 due to increasing adoption of carbon reduction strategies, sustainability reporting, and net-zero commitments. Corporations are increasingly investing in urban forest projects to support emissions compensation while strengthening environmental and social sustainability initiatives. Municipalities are expected to be the fastest-growing segment during the forecast period, driven by increasing investments in urban greening, climate-resilience programs, air-quality improvement, and carbon sequestration initiatives. Growing government support for urban forestry and the integration of carbon credits into municipal sustainability programs are expected to encourage greater participation in urban forest carbon markets.

Geographical Overview

North America was the leading region in the Urban Forest Carbon Credits Market in 2025, supported by established voluntary carbon markets, strong corporate demand for nature-based credits, and extensive urban forestry programs. The United States has a well-developed ecosystem of municipal forestry organizations, carbon project developers, and buyers interested in locally generated carbon offsets. Urban forests also provide additional benefits such as improved air quality, reduced urban heat, biodiversity enhancement, and community benefits, increasing their attractiveness to carbon-credit buyers. Existing research has documented strong interest among U.S. municipalities in developing marketable urban-forest carbon offsets and highlighted buyer preferences for locally generated urban forestry credits.

Asia-Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing region in the Urban Forest Carbon Credits Market during the forecast period, driven by rapid urbanization, expanding green-city initiatives, increasing climate commitments, and growing development of nature-based carbon markets. Countries including China, India, Japan, Singapore, Australia, and Southeast Asian economies are increasing investments in urban greening, reforestation, ecosystem restoration, and carbon-credit programs. The broader voluntary carbon-credit market in Asia-Pacific is projected to experience strong growth, while forestry and land-use projects are becoming increasingly important within regional carbon markets. Expanding corporate net-zero commitments, government climate policies, and demand for high-quality nature-based credits are expected to create opportunities for urban forest carbon projects.

Key Trends and Drivers

Premium Valuation of Urban Nature-Based Credits:

A key trend in the urban forest carbon credits market is the growing emphasis on premium credits that combine carbon removal with measurable urban environmental and social benefits. Urban forestry projects can quantify additional outcomes such as stormwater management, air-quality improvement, reduced energy consumption, biodiversity, and community benefits alongside carbon sequestration. City Forest Credits, for example, uses a Carbon+ approach that incorporates quantified co-benefits into urban forest credits. This differentiation is becoming increasingly important as carbon buyers place greater value on project location, environmental quality, and broader community benefits rather than purchasing carbon reductions solely on a volume basis.

Corporate Demand for High-Quality Nature-Based Credits:

A major driver of the urban forest carbon credits market is the increasing demand from companies seeking credible nature-based carbon credits with visible local benefits. Urban forestry projects can provide carbon sequestration while simultaneously improving air quality, managing stormwater, reducing urban heat, and enhancing community environments. Research indicates that buyers have shown greater interest in urban forestry credits because of their environmental and social co-benefits and may accept a price premium for such projects. Meanwhile, the broader carbon market continues to expand, with global carbon-credit issuances increasing in 2025 and higher-quality nature-based projects receiving price premiums.
