The survey is implemented by SinoCarbon, Tsinghua University China Carbon Market Center, ICF, and the Dutch Emissions Authority, coordinated by China Carbon Forum (CCF). The project has received endorsement from the NDRC Climate Change Department.
The 2017 China Carbon Pricing Survey Report will provide a channel for China’s carbon market stakeholders to gain quantitative insights in order to support domestic policy, design and implementation, increase the level of transparency and confidence in the National ETS, and motivate entity-level investment decisions in China’s carbon market.
The survey results and accompanying report will be published this summer. Your responses will remain anonymous.
If you have any questions, please contact us at: forum@chinacarbon.info.
