Back then some market analysts <a href=\"https:\/\/www.miotech.com\/zh-CN\/article\/77\">predicted<\/a> that the price would approach CNY 100 only in 2030.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The landmark was in fact reached on 24 April, just prior to the 1 May implementation of a new <a href=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/en\/digest\/carbon-trading-regulations-approved\/\">framework of regulations<\/a> to standardise China\u2019s emissions trading systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The anticipation of these stricter regulations has prompted major emitters to increase their purchases of emissions allowances, driving up the carbon price, reported <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bloomberglaw.com\/environment-and-energy\/china-carbon-price-tops-100-yuan-for-first-time-as-rules-tighten\">Bloomberg<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This trend has been further fuelled by the <a href=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/en\/digest\/voluntary-carbon-market-relaunched\/\">relaunch<\/a> in January of China\u2019s national voluntary carbon market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, guidance on emission accounting for the aluminium and concrete industry, issued in March by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, has intensified&nbsp; carbon market activity, noted Qi Rui from China University of Geosciences, in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tanjiaoyi.com\/article-67543-1.html\">PetroChina News Centre<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>China\u2019s carbon price is still rising, <a href=\"https:\/\/m.caixin.com\/m\/2024-04-26\/102191293.html\">Caixin<\/a> reports, but despite the recent surge the price remains much lower than in many other countries. In the EU, it currently stands at about USD 71.50. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The difference can be attributed both to the comparatively relaxed emissions regulations for Chinese companies, and broader government policies, as Professor Liang Xi from University College London recently <a href=\"https:\/\/mp.weixin.qq.com\/s\/hk6PptOkOJTH-QJyDm70Lw\">emphasised<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Liang highlighted that the carbon price also reflects the efficacy of other policy instruments, such as renewable energy subsidies. When effective, these reduce the burden on the carbon market to mitigate emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Read Dialogue Earth\u2019s earlier report on <\/em><a
