The integration of financial technology (fintech) innovations, particularly artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain, is poised to revolutionize carbon markets by enhancing their transparency, efficiency, and overall trustworthiness. Carbon markets, which are vital tools in global efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, have traditionally faced significant challenges such as lack of transparency, inefficiencies, and susceptibility to fraud. AI offers powerful tools for improving the accuracy and efficiency of monitoring, reporting, and verifying carbon emissions, while blockchain provides a decentralized, immutable ledger that ensures secure and transparent carbon credit transactions. This review explores how AI and blockchain can be applied to carbon markets by exploring the technical, operational, and regulatory challenges associated with their implementation and discuss the potential of integrated AI and blockchain solutions to create more robust and effective carbon trading systems.
