Auction Information

Background

Quick Links

As part of the cap-and-trade program, ARB will hold quarterly allowance auctions each year.  This will allow market participants to acquire allowances directly from ARB.  ARB will hold its first auction in summer of 2012.  As part of program implementation in 2012, staff will provide a detailed Instructional Guidance Document (coming soon!) and training to auction participants.  In general, auction participants will have to register to participate in the auction and meet financial regulatory requirements.

Please check back soon for more information and related forms.
