Australia’s carbon price has fallen 4.7 per cent to $54.50 a tonne over the past fortnight yet trading volumes of carbon units have surged, indicating the market is stabilising after a massive bull run last year pushed the price up by 210 per cent.

Fresh analysis from RepuTex, a carbon market research house, shows the price of Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCU) is still up 7 per cent this calendar year but fell to $54.50/t on Tuesday, down $2.65 over the
past two weeks.
