ETS status

No federal price. CA Cap-and-Trade + RGGI (11 states); ~7% of national emissions covered nationally

Exposed operators

ExxonMobil, Chevron, ConocoPhillips (CA ops); Vistra Corp, Constellation Energy (RGGI)

Trade system impact

Compliance burden concentrated in CA/RGGI. Post-2030 CA reauthorization (under CARB Chair Liane Randolph) is a pricing-structure inflection point. Federal procurement via DOE FECM is the most consequential lever for national CDR integrity.

Proof-pack relevance

Federal procurement (DOE FECM under Brad Crabtree) and state compliance programs (CA ARB, RGGI) are simultaneously open to property-based per-tonne evidentiary disclosure. Single highest-leverage country for proof-pack adoption.
