国际碳行动合作的状况报告显示2016年排放交易是应对气候变化的斗争中取得越来越重要。
国际碳行动合作组织（ICAP）状态报告2016年2月23日发布，凸显了持续增长和
碳排放交易系统（ETS）在应对气候变化的斗争中发挥关键作用。事实上，2015年只身看到五个新ETSS在亚洲和北美的公告。报告是在世界各地的
排放权交易，其中突出的重要趋势，并提供了关于碳
市场的发展中心来一个受过教育的前景上所有活动的年度审查。
巴黎协定发出了一个强烈信号，雄心勃勃和持续的全球气候行动。通过允许各国使用国际
碳市场，以满足他们的承诺，该协定已经认识到以市场为基础的解决方案，以应对气候变化的成本效益潜力。超过一半的气候公约缔约方均表示，他们计划使用或考虑他们的合规战略，利用国际市场。
现在，全球框架到位，重点是落实作出的承诺。未来几年将会看到气候的措施，包括排放权交易的激增。截至2016年，已经有17 ETS到位世界各地，覆盖超过四十亿吨的温室气体排放量。
亚洲排放权交易的兴起
2015亚洲看到的出现作为排放权交易的新热点，在过去三年中推出，其中包括韩国在今年年初九个新系统。这种强劲的增长将继续与中国国家ETS公布的2017年，这将使其成为最大的单一碳市场在世界上。 SinoCarbon的碳专家钱国强和陈志斌评估中国在国家碳市场的快速转型，而韩国环境部讨论了韩国国家制度的实施。最后，东京都政府着眼于独特的城市范围内的东京限额与交易计划中的最新创新。
北美认为，在碳市场再度关注
在大西洋彼岸，气候变化将继续走高政治议程。曼尼托巴省和安大略这两个加拿大省份宣布计划实施ETS，意味着加利福尼亚州和魁北克省西部气候倡议的碳市场将进一步扩大。在美国的清洁能源计划（CPP）的批准，也引发了排放交易新的兴趣。从区域温室气体倡议专家概述如何它的系统可以为遵守CPP提供了一个榜样。加州空气资源委员会还回顾了其运作的第一阶段，为扩大碳市场的潜力。
与此同时,建立系统正在经历结构性改革的过程,确保它们继续发挥有效的作用在减少温室气体排放,并适应不断变化的环境和气候目标。例如,在欧盟
政策制定者们凭借十年的ETS经验使他们的系统未来的证明到下一个十年。欧盟委员会(European Commission)提供了一个洞察准备改革欧盟ETS(欧盟ETS),荷兰排放部门反映,如何简化欧盟ETS和改进。
这些开创性的系统继续向世界展示排放交易的灵活性和有效性,并激励政策制定者目前发展下一代的ETS。
Emissions Trading Worldwide: ICAP Status Report 2016
The International Carbon Action Partnership’s Status Report 2016 shows emissions trading is gaining ever more importance in the fight against climate change.
The International Carbon Action Partnership’s (ICAP) Status Report 2016, released on 23 February, highlights the continuous growth and key role that emissions trading systems (ETS) play in the fight against climate change. Indeed, 2015 alone saw the announcement of five new ETSs in Asia and North America. The Report is a yearly review on all activities in emissions trading around the world, which highlights important trends and provides an educated outlook on central developments in carbon markets to come.
The Paris Agreement sent a strong signal for ambitious and sustained global climate action. By allowing countries to use international carbon markets to meet their commitments, the Agreement has recognized the cost-effectiveness potential of market-based solutions to climate change. Over half of the parties to the UNFCCC have indicated they plan to use or consider using international markets in their compliance strategies.
Now that the global framework is in place, the focus is on implementing the pledges made. The next few years will see a proliferation of climate measures, including emissions trading. As of 2016, there are already 17 ETS in place around the world, covering more than four billion tons of greenhouse gas emissions.
Asia on the rise in emissions trading
2015 saw Asia emerge as the new hotspot for emissions trading, with nine new systems launched in the past three years, including of the Republic of Korea at the beginning of the year. This strong growth is set to continue with the announcement of a national ETS in China for 2017, which would make it the largest single carbon market in the world. SinoCarbon’s carbon experts Qian Guoqiang and Chen Zhibin assess China’s rapid transition to a national carbon market, while the Korean Ministry of Environment discusses the implementation of the Korean national system. Finally, the Tokyo Metropolitan Government looks at recent innovations within the unique city-wide Tokyo Cap-and-Trade Program.
North America sees renewed interest in carbon markets
Across the Atlantic, climate change continues to move up the political agenda. The Canadian provinces of Manitoba and Ontario both announced plans to implement an ETS, implying the Western Climate Initiative carbon market of California and Québec is set to expand even further. The approval of the Clean Power Plan (CPP) in the United States has also sparked renewed interest in emissions trading. Experts from the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative outline how its system could provide a role model for compliance with the CPP. The California Air Resources Board also looks back on its first phase of operation and the potential for expanding its carbon market.
Meanwhile, established systems are undergoing a process of structural reform, ensuring they continue to play an effective role in reducing greenhouse gases and adapt to changing circumstances and climate targets. For example, in the EU, policymakers are drawing on a decade of ETS experience to make their system future proof into the next decade. The European Commission provides an insight into the preparations for reform of the European Union ETS (EU ETS), while the Dutch Emissions Authority reflects on how the EU ETS could be simplified and improved.
These pioneering systems continue to demonstrate to the world the flexibility and effectiveness of emissions trading, and inspire policymakers currently developing the next generation of ETS.
