Overview

About

Maintained by Charles CoverdaleFirst published 2026-04-221 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Unified access to carbon market data from compliance emissions trading systems ('EU ETS', 'UK ETS', 'RGGI', California Cap-and-Trade) and voluntary carbon markets (Verra, Gold Standard, American Carbon Registry, Climate Action Reserve, via the Berkeley Voluntary Registry Offsets Database and the 'CarbonPlan' 'OffsetsDB' API). Includes cross-market price data from the 'International Carbon Action Partnership' ('ICAP') Allowance Price Explorer https://icapcarbonaction.com/en/ets-prices, global carbon pricing from the World Bank Carbon Pricing Dashboard https://carbonpricingdashboard.worldbank.org/, and the historical 'RFF' World Carbon Pricing Database following Dolphin, Pollitt and Newbery (2020) doi:10.1038/s41597-022-01659-x. Data is downloaded from public sources on first use and cached locally.

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash

Fast Ubuntu binaries via r2u (no compilation). The cranapt setup runs once and is skipped when it is already enabled.

bspm (used by r2u) also needs make: sudo apt install make

  || sudo dnf copr enable -y iucar/cran
sudo dnf install -y R-CRAN-carbondata

RPMs from the iucar/cran COPR, rebuilt from CRAN.

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
zypper -q lr | grep -qi autoCRAN \
