The positive effect shows that there are problems to be solved -observation and thinking on the first anniversary of the carbon market operation

As of July 16, the national carbon emission right trading market has launched its first anniversary. From the perspective of the overall situation, the carbon market is generally stable, and the market operation effect is good. As a policy tool and landing platform that achieves the "double carbon" goal, after a year of operation, the importance of the carbon market across the country has been revealed, and its positive impact is fully reflected.

First, it has significantly promoted the adjustment of the industrial structure. Whether it is carbon peak carbon neutrality, or "dual control" requirements for energy consumption and carbon emissions in recent years, objective enterprises need to bear more costs. The free market quota provided by the carbon market in the early stage can effectively reduce the carbon emissions cost of the enterprise, and then indirectly promote the transformation and upgrading of the industrial structure.

Second, the national carbon market can promote the decline in the total carbon emissions in my country. The high performance rate effectively promotes the achievement of the overall goal of greenhouse gas emissions in my country. While strengthening the concept of low -carbon environmental protection in society, it has laid a solid foundation for the further development of the national carbon market.

A few days ago, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment held a national carbon market construction work conference to summarize the effectiveness and experience of the first performance cycle, re -analyzing the situation, and arranging the next stage of key tasks. Many problems in the carbon market have surfaced with new work deployment. Generally speaking, there are still some problems that need to be solved in the carbon market in the country.

First, the carbon market has a single product structure, and the market activity needs to be improved. First, the national carbon trading market showed limited characteristics in the first performance period. Among them, there is still a "performance -driven" phenomenon behind the high performance rate. The main purpose of the discharge enterprise to participate in the carbon market is to perform the contract and lack the motivation to actively participate in the transaction. Secondly, there is only one greenhouse gas in the current market as a trading product. Compared with the more mature carbon market abroad, trading products appear too single.

Second, the disclosure of carbon transaction information is insufficient, the relevant regulatory mechanism needs to be improved, and the quality of corporate information disclosure is not guaranteed. The quality of information disclosure is conducive to the timely and effectively controlling the activity of the carbon market in a timely manner, and it is conducive to investors to accurately determine the relevant risks. However, the disclosure of key information will seriously curb the enthusiasm of market participants in transaction, and then severely restrict the development of the carbon market.

3. The degree of finance of the carbon market needs to be improved, and the development and promotion of carbon finance and carbon futures is insufficient. Introducing options and futures transactions can effectively improve the activity of the carbon market. Carbon finance -related derivative products on the current market, such as carbon bonds and carbon funds, have a significant insufficient amount and total amount. The lack of promotion of such innovative financial products has also led to lack of activity in the carbon market.

To solve these problems, first of all, the carbon market should be expanded as soon as possible, and the high -emission industry, including petrochemical chemical industry, is gradually incorporated into the carbon market, and the scope of carbon trading products will be expanded, incorporating a variety of greenhouse gases including methane. Secondly, the relevant laws and regulations and market supervision systems related to carbon disclosure should be improved as soon as possible to ensure the quality of carbon information disclosure. Finally, we should encourage innovative carbon financial products to participate in carbon transactions.

The carbon market is still in the early stages of development and construction. In the face of the current changing market environment, it is still necessary to take the right medicine for existing problems and launch targeted methods to gradually resolve existing contradictions. At the same time, we should also strengthen international cooperation and industry -university -research collaboration to allow policies to lead and empower science and technology. This can make our country's "double carbon" goal achieve stable.
