According to a latest report on the status and future trends of carbon pricing released by the World Bank, the global carbon pricing revenue registered about 84 billion U.S. Dollars in 2021, up nearly 60 per cent from 2020.

A total of 68 direct carbon pricing mechanisms, including 36 carbon taxes and 32 carbon emission trading systems, are currently in operation.

On July 16, 2021, China’s national carbon market, a major institutional innovation to facilitate emissions reduction, started trading and the opening price for carbon quotas was 48 yuan per tonne (metric ton).

After nearly a year of trading, on May 26, the opening price for carbon quotas in the national carbon market reached 59 yuan per tonne, 22.91 per cent higher than the initial opening price in the market.

According to the statistics of the Hainan Green Finance Institute, as of December 31, 2021, the first compliance cycle of the national carbon market had been successfully completed, during which more than 2,000 key emitters in the power industry have been included, covering nearly 4.5 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions.

Under the targets of peaking carbon emissions and carbon neutrality, the trade of carbon emission rights allows orderly allocation of carbon emission quotas in every link of the industry chain and actively promotes carbon reduction of the whole industry chain.

Particularly, high-carbon industries need to relieve the pressure of carbon reduction through carbon emission rights trading and the increase in the cost of carbon emission would promote high-carbon enterprises to take more independent carbon reduction actions.

Liu Xiangdong from the China Center for International Economic Exchanges (CCIEE) said that the participants of the carbon trade market include not only enterprises from power generation, petrochemical and other industries,

Also, financial institutions like banks, trusts, social organisations, and the contract standards and trading rules in the market are designed in the direction of the futures market.

Xiangdong said that currently, the regulators are speeding up the construction of the carbon futures market in line with the development of the carbon spot market, and industry insiders have been calling for carbon futures to be listed.

Yuan Jingting, a researcher with the Hainan Green Finance Institute, said that to ensure the effective and healthy operation of China’s carbon market, efforts should be made to further optimize related systems and measures for the market,

Also, to formulate relevant carbon quota allocation methods according to the development planning of different industries, and further promote the development of green and low-carbon technologies.

“China’s carbon market trading is gradually improving, related policies around the carbon market will become clearer, and China is expected to become the world’s largest carbon trading market, shouldering the due responsibilities and obligations of a big power,” Jingting said.
