On July 15, the first anniversary of the carbon market operation was held in the coast of the East Lake. More than 100 experts and scholars across the country gathered together to summarize the experience and effectiveness of the national carbon market construction, discuss the path of implementation of the "double carbon" goals, and explore the use of the carbon market to promote the development of the industrial structure of Hubei and promote green low -carbon transformation.

50 yuan/ton, carbon prices are steadily rising

Data from the carbon emissions registration settlement (Wuhan) limited liability company (referred to as "China Carbon Deng") showed that the first batch of 2,162 power generation companies included in the carbon market, the account opening rate of the registration and settlement account reached 100%. During the first performance cycle, the "medium carbon board" assisted the competent authorities at all levels to issue a carbon emission quota of more than 9 billion tons, with a total registered asset of more than 500 billion yuan.

According to the classification of carbon transactions, the main categories of the carbon market in my country, one is the carbon emission quota (CEA) assigned by the government to the enterprise, and the other is that the national certification is voluntarily reduced displacement (CCER).

The carbon emissions quota is the "carbon emission right" quota approved by the relevant government departments to send a company. With one year as a performance cycle, it can only be discharged so much a year.

When the actual emissions of the enterprise are balanced, they can be sold in the carbon market; if it is exceeded, it is necessary to spend money on the carbon market to buy the corresponding amount. This process is called "performance".

In addition, some companies voluntarily implement photovoltaic power generation, green electricity, and planting trees in exchange for forestry carbon exchange to reduce carbon emissions. After quantifying this data, the registration of the carbon trading system is CCER.

At present, the "China Carbon Deng" assisted the competent department to enable the CCER offering mechanism within the first performance cycle, and successfully used the 32.72 million tons of CCER to complete the performance.

Carbon prices rise, carbon reduction will be more valuable

Carbon prices are one of the hot topics for professionals participating in the meeting.

“碳价为什么这么重要？首先它向消费者发出一个信号，提醒消费者应该更节约地使用那些高碳商品和高碳服务。”7月15日，武汉大学欧洲问题研究中心主任、气候变化与Qi Shaozhou, director and professor of the Energy Economic Research Center, introduced, "It also encourages inventors and innovators, producers to continuously develop and introduce more low -carbon technology."

Only with enough carbon prices and wide enough coverage can everyone have the driving force of carbon reduction, carbon reduction will be more valuable, and the carbon market can operate effectively.

Then, to leverage this huge carbon market, we need to continuously provide richer and fresher carbon products.

Zhang Yun, general manager of the International Finance Department of the Bank of China Hubei Branch, proposed: "The right to discharge of carbon can be pledged into equity financing products." In addition, the various rights and interests related to the ecological environment of the enterprise can also be pledged.

It is reported that "China Carbon Deng" and a number of banks explore the feasible channels for key emission units through carbon distribution pledge to help key emission units to achieve special financing for energy conservation and emission reduction; The National Carbon Market Series Index provides a reference for financial institutions to quickly conduct carbon asset value evaluation, and provide a pricing basis for the development of climate investment and financing innovation business.

Create a "carbon factor" centralized registration system

On July 15th, Chen Zhixiang, chairman of "China Carbon Deng", responded that "China Carbon Deng" is the "underlying database" of the national carbon assets and is the cornerstone of the platform for carbon market management for the competent authority.

In the next step, the "medium -carbon board" will create a centralized registration system for "carbon element" to form a pattern of "multiple trading agencies and one registration agency" to promote the carbon trading market, green power market, energy use market, and pollution right market. The orderly connection of the environmental factor market will help form a new pattern of double -carbon development in the country.
