ACX Launches ACXRWA Platform to Unlock Climate Finance at Scale

SINGAPORE, September 25, 2025 — ACX (AirCarbon Exchange) Group has launched ACXRWA, a next-generation digital platform designed to mobilize capital for large-scale climate mitigation projects by linking global investors directly to real-world assets (RWAs).

The launch represents ACX’s entry into the rapidly expanding RWA space, building on its award-winning track record in commodities and digital carbon markets. ACX serves corporates, financial traders, project developers, and other stakeholders through its distributed ledger–based trading platform. The company has been recognized as the Best Global Carbon Exchange by Environmental Finance’s Voluntary Carbon Market Rankings for four consecutive years (2021–2024) and is a member of both the International Emissions Trading Association (IETA) and the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) — reinforcing its credibility in global carbon markets.

Unlocking Capital Through Tokenisation

At the core of ACXRWA is the tokenisation of Emission Reduction Purchase Agreements (ERPAs). These agreements are transformed into digital instruments called Future Carbon Tons (FCTs), designed to bring price transparency, liquidity, and fractional access to climate finance. The goal is to widen participation by enabling both institutional and retail investors to back projects that generate verified emission reductions.

“Our goal with ACXRWA is simple: unlock capital at the speed and scale the climate crisis demands,” said William Pazos, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of ACX. “We have created a platform where technology meets credibility, and where investors—large or small—can participate in building a liveable future.”

EBEX: First Project on the Platform

The inaugural listing on ACXRWA is EBEX, a Brazil-based Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage (BECCS) company expected to become one of the world’s largest engineered carbon removal hubs.

With access to 2.3 billion tons of geological CO₂ storage capacity and proximity to multiple bioethanol plants producing high-purity CO₂, EBEX is expected to begin generating carbon credits by Q1 2027. ACX has secured exclusive marketing rights for the project.

“Brazil has an extraordinary role to play in global climate solutions,” said Carlos Martins, Director of ACX Brasil. “Through ACXRWA, we are proud to showcase EBEX as the first listed project — highlighting how Brazil can lead in developing large-scale, high-integrity carbon removal capacity.”

Token Generation Event and Market Role

To finance its growing pipeline, ACXRWA will launch a native token via a Token Generation Event (TGE). The token will function both as a financing instrument and as a utility layer across ACX’s ecosystem. Proceeds will be directed toward new climate projects, including large-scale removal and distributed renewable solutions.

“From ACX’s inception, it was always our intent to extract the most efficient use case for onchain asset-backed tokenisation and bring to the environmental market a standard for project finance,” said Thomas McMahon, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of ACX. “ACXRWA is the culmination of that vision. Change is never easy, but now is the time.”

Bridging the Climate Finance Gap

The launch comes amid an urgent shortfall in climate finance. Global decarbonization efforts are estimated to require more than USD 9 trillion annually to achieve net-zero targets. By combining ACX’s carbon trading expertise with tokenisation technology, ACXRWA positions itself as an infrastructure backbone for the digital climate economy, connecting capital directly to projects that generate measurable emissions reductions while delivering commercial returns.
