Panel: CORSIA's 68% Problem: Who Gets Locked Out of Scarce Carbon Supply?
- A single Guyana project supplies 68% of eligible units — but only 10.8% of the pipeline has cleared host-country authorisation.
- ASEAN could increase eligible supply eightfold — to over 20 million units — if governments authorise already-qualified projects.
- Premium carriers, flag carriers and low-cost carriers face this supply squeeze differently — one playbook won't fit all three.
- Put directly to regulators: what delays a Letter of Authorisation, and what would make governments move faster?
- What airlines should build now: procurement governance, supplier due diligence, and portfolio diversification ahead of Phase 2.
14:20-15:20
(60 mins)
Panel: Article 6 Authorization Risk: Contracts, Insurance and the Bankability Gap
- Article 6 authorisation risk isn't just policy — it's a bankability issue shaping how deals get priced and structured.
- Which contract clauses actually hold up if a host government's position shifts: irrevocability, transfer rights, compensation.
- What Letter of Authorisation revocation insurance can realistically cover, building on Gold Standard's first policies addressing this.
- From inside a real transaction: what nearly killed a deal, and what the developer would structure differently next time.
- What track record and risk-transfer structures investors need before committing capital to authorisation-exposed projects.

CORSIA Procurement & Technical Workshop:
SAF Book & Claim Workshop: Procurement, Accounting and Double-Claiming Controls under CORSIA
- How SAF Book & Claim works end-to-end: issuance, transfer, registry tracking, retirement and claim documentation.
- Where double-counting and double-claiming risks arise across SAF producers, airlines, corporate customers and reporting systems.
- What procurement teams must verify: certification status, ownership chain, retirement proof, and contractual safeguards.
- How to structure supplier selection and contract negotiation: representations, warranties, audit rights, replacement obligations and claim language.
- Practical checklist: what documents an airline should request before signing, before payment and before public disclosure.
