To mark Carbon Pulse’s 10-year anniversary and to better serve our subscribers with more targeted content, we are expanding and segmenting our news and intelligence into three specialised products.

Below is a list of FAQs to help readers understand and prepare for our new offering.

1. What is changing?

Carbon Pulse is launching three separate subscription products in July:

  • Carbon Pulse Premium (equivalent to the existing Carbon Pulse product)
  • Net Zero Pulse
  • Nature & Biodiversity Pulse

Each product will have its own branding and pricing, and will be hosted in separate areas of the Carbon Pulse website.

**Read our March 4 announcement about our new subscription products**

2. What is Carbon Pulse Premium?

Carbon Pulse Premium is the new name for the existing Carbon Pulse subscription. It remains our flagship product, covering:

  • Compliance carbon markets (EU ETS, California carbon market, China ETS, etc.)
  • Other GHG pricing (taxes, CBAMs, etc.)
  • Voluntary carbon market (VCM)
  • International climate negotiations and Article 6 of the Paris Agreement
  • Nature-based solutions (NbS)
  • Climate-related government and corporate policy
  • All other aspects of the global net zero transition, including
    • CO2 removals
    • Aviation and CORSIA
    • Shipping
    • Clean fuels for transport and heating
    • CCUS and industrial decarbonisation
    • Renewables and electrification
    • Green finance
    • Reporting & disclosure

Carbon Pulse Premium subscriptions will require a minimum of three user licences per subscription.

Subscription pricing for Carbon Pulse Premium, which will be the same as the current Carbon Pulse product, will not be updated until Jan. 2026.

3. What is Net Zero Pulse?

Net Zero Pulse is a carve-out of Carbon Pulse Premium, focussing on:

  • Voluntary carbon market
  • International climate negotiations and Article 6 of the Paris Agreement
  • Nature-based solutions (NbS)
  • Climate-related government and corporate policy
  • All other aspects of the global net zero transition (including the topics listed above)

Net Zero Pulse will not include coverage of compliance carbon markets or other GHG pricing instruments.

This product will carry a lower price point than Carbon Pulse Premium and offer single-user subscriptions.

4. What is Nature & Biodiversity Pulse?

Nature & Biodiversity Pulse covers:

  • Biodiversity credits/markets and policy
  • Nature-based solutions (NbS)
  • Emerging instruments like plastic credits and other nature-related certificates

Previously free, our biodiversity content will be now paywalled.

Nature & Biodiversity Pulse will carry a lower price point than both Carbon Pulse Premium and Net Zero Pulse, and also offer single-user subscriptions.

5. Can I still subscribe to Carbon Pulse as a single user?

You can subscribe to the existing Carbon Pulse product as a single user until July 1, 2025.  All existing Carbon Pulse subscriptions will be transitioned to Carbon Pulse Premium after that date.

Subscription orders for Carbon Pulse Premium placed after July 1, 2025 will require a minimum of three logins.

Single-user subscriptions can be purchased for Net Zero Pulse and Nature & Biodiversity Pulse after July 1.

6. What if I currently have a single-user subscription?

You can renew your Carbon Pulse subscription until July 1 at the 2025 rate and retain single-user access for up to one more year.

After that, you will need to purchase at least three logins for Carbon Pulse Premium, or you can buy a single-user subscription to Net Zero Pulse and/or Nature & Biodiversity Pulse.

7. Will I lose access to Carbon Pulse’s biodiversity content under my current subscription?

Yes. From July, our biodiversity content will move behind a separate paywall under Nature & Biodiversity Pulse.

This content has been free to access until now (rather than being part of the Carbon Pulse subscription).

To retain access to our biodiversity content, you will need to subscribe to Nature & Biodiversity Pulse, either as a standalone product or as an add-on to your Carbon Pulse Premium or Net Zero Pulse subscription.

8. Are Carbon Pulse’s Terms & Conditions changing?

Yes, we are updating our Terms & Conditions, as well as our Privacy & Cookies Policy, in part to reflect these changes.  Advance notice will be given and any updates will take effect from July 1, 2025 at the latest.

These updates will not affect existing subscription agreements.

9. What do I need to do by July 1?

If you’re part of a multi-user Carbon Pulse subscription: No action is required.  Your access will be transitioned to Carbon Pulse Premium and your expiration date will remain the same.

If your company has a single-login access: Contact sales@carbon-pulse.com by July 1, 2025 to renew for up to 12 months based on the 2025 price and our legacy terms.

After July 1, you will only be able to buy subscriptions to Carbon Pulse Premium (3-user minimum), Net Zero Pulse (single-user access available), or Nature & Biodiversity Pulse (single-user access available).

10. Can I use a personal/non-professional email for subscriptions?

No. Subscriptions to paywalled products will require a work/professional email address. Free or temporary email domains such as Gmail, Hotmail, or Yahoo will not be accepted.

11. Can you tell me about the prices – and any potential discounts – for the new subscription products?

Each product will have its own pricing, with details are available on request.

  • Carbon Pulse Premium: Prices will be the same as the current Carbon Pulse product, and will not be updated until Jan. 2026. Carbon Pulse Premium subscriptions will require a minimum of three user licences per subscription.
  • Net Zero Pulse: Prices will be lower than for Carbon Pulse Premium, with single-user subscriptions available.
  • Nature & Biodiversity Pulse: Prices will be lower than both Carbon Pulse Premium and Net Zero Pulse, with single-user subscriptions available.

Discounts are available for multi-product packages, multi-user access, or on a case-by-case basis.

Please email sales@carbon-pulse.com for more information.

12. Will the CP Daily and Nature & Biodiversity Pulse newsletters remain free?

Yes. CP Daily will remain a free daily newsletter, excluding biodiversity content.

The twice-weekly Nature & Biodiversity Pulse newsletter will also remain free.

However, you will need a paid subscription to read our articles.
