But they expect it to act as an \u201cexternal incentive\u201d for China\u2019s national ETS to grow so as to offset some long-term impacts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mechanism may motivate Chinese policymakers to improve the national carbon-accounting system, start obliging certain companies to pay for their emissions, and speed up the expansion of the national carbon market, experts say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-strong-and-clear-signal\">A \u2018strong and clear\u2019 signal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>CBAM is designed to prevent EU companies from moving their production to places with less stringent climate policies outside the bloc \u2013 a scenario known as \u201ccarbon leakage\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also intends to level the playing field between EU firms and their overseas competitors on some emissions-intensive products by equalising the carbon prices paid for EU products and for imports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mechanism will initially cover six categories of products: iron and steel, cement, aluminium, fertilisers, electricity and hydrogen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"wp-block-cd-related-news alignright block--related-news loading\" data-post-id=\"73834\"><div class=\"block--related-news__image\"><\/div><div class=\"block--related-news__content\"><span class=\"block--related-news__heading\">Recommended<\/span><span class=\"block--related-news__title\"><\/span><\/div><\/a>\n\n\n\n<p>During a transition period from October 2023 to December 2025, non-EU manufacturers will only be required to report their emissions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After that, a levy will be brought in gradually from 2026 to 2034, meaning EU importers will have to purchase certificates <a href=\"https:\/\/www.europarl.europa.eu\/RegData\/etudes\/BRIE\/2022\/698889\/EPRS_BRI(2022)698889_EN.pdf\">equivalent to<\/a> the weekly EU carbon price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>China exported <a href=\"https:\/\/trade.ec.europa.eu\/doclib\/docs\/2006\/september\/tradoc_122530.pdf\">\u20ac472.7 billion<\/a> (US$507.8 billion) worth of goods into the EU in 2021. But from a trade perspective, as currently designed it won\u2019t have much impact on Chinese goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An <a href=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/en\/climate\/cbam-carbon-levy-will-only-hit-a-fraction-of-chinese-exports-to-eu\/\">analysis<\/a> published in China Dialogue in 2021 found that the mechanism would only affect cement, aluminium, fertilisers and iron and steel, which together represented less than 2% of China\u2019s exports into the EU in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wu Bixuan is a senior partner at Beijing-based Hiways Law Firm and specialises in international trade law. He tells China Dialogue that the \u201cpsychological impact\u201d of CBAM on Chinese policymakers is \u201cfar greater\u201d than its actual impact as it puts an \u201cexterior monetary incentive\u201d on cutting emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wu says that the mechanism sends a \u201cstrong and clear signal to China and other countries that international trade and a nation\u2019s competitiveness can now be affected by a new factor: carbon.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In that sense, CBAM can be regarded as the \u201cnumber one external incentive\u201d for policymakers to improve China\u2019s national ETS so as to keep its impacts on Chinese exports to a minimum, he notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some experts also point out that CBAM\u2019s main purpose is not to impose tax on non-EU trading partners, as it may appear to be. Rather, its target is the EU\u2019s own industrial sector, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/mp.weixin.qq.com\/s\/WK4MoYMMlXPdwfIJldheBw\">Qin Yan<\/a>, lead analyst at Refinitiv, a financial markets data provider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As CBAM is phased in, the free allowances given to the EU\u2019s industrial sector by the EU ETS \u2013 the current measure against carbon leakage \u2013 will be phased out in parallel so as to avoid double protection, Qin wrote in Chinese business publication <a href=\"https:\/\/mp.weixin.qq.com\/s\/WK4MoYMMlXPdwfIJldheBw\">Caijing<\/a> last June. Therefore, CBAM\u2019s \u201ccore\u201d is to motivate the bloc\u2019s industrial companies to slash their emissions, Qin said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Carbon prices and market expansion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Launched in July 2021, China\u2019s national ETS currently covers the power sector only. While the scheme has largely reached its initial goals of setting up a trading system and raising basic awareness of emissions trading, it faces various challenges, such as underwhelming trading volumes and a low carbon pricing point. There is a consensus among experts that CBAM might encourage the market to grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chen Zhibin, senior manager of Berlin-based thinktank adelphi, tells China Dialogue that CBAM will not have substantial impacts on China\u2019s national ETS in the short term because companies will not need to pay until 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, once the tax officially kicks in, the difference in the costs of emitting CO2 under the EU and China\u2019s carbon markets will be felt directly, and that might encourage Chinese authorities to phase in paid allowances to make companies pay for their emissions, Zhibin says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At present, China\u2019s power plants can largely offset their emissions with free allowances handed out by the government, limiting their motivation to cut emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CBAM could also push companies to realise that carbon prices are \u201cvery important\u201d and so pay more attention to them, according to Chen Mei\u2019an, programme director and senior analyst of innovative Green Development Program (iGDP). This would be particularly significant for industries covered by CBAM, she notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-cd-article-image aligncenter block--article-image block--article-image--article\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"><div class=\"block--article-image__column\"><div class=\"block--article-image__image\"><img class=\"lazy\" data-src=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Aluminium-A-barometer-for-Chinas-green-recovery.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Aluminium-A-barometer-for-Chinas-green-recovery-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Aluminium-A-barometer-for-Chinas-green-recovery-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Aluminium-A-barometer-for-Chinas-green-recovery.jpg 2560w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 768px, (max-width: 1024px) 1024px, 2560px\" alt=\"workers survey the production of aluminium at a plant in Huaibei cit\"\/><\/div><div class=\"block--article-image__content\"><div itemprop=\"caption\" class=\"block--article-image__caption\">Coiled aluminium sheets at a production plant in Anhui, east China.

This would put an extra cost of 652\u2013690 yuan (US$96\u2013102) per tonne on iron and steel, and 4,295\u20134,909 yuan (US$634\u2013725) per tonne on aluminium, the report found.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAt the current stage, the difference in the carbon prices between China and the EU\u2019s carbon markets is quite big,\u201d Mei\u2019an says. \u201cThe cost of CO2 emissions has not been fully reflected in China\u2019s carbon prices. Therefore, [if we] compare the carbon prices under the two carbon markets, [Chinese] companies\u2019 efforts to reduce their emissions will not be shown, either.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2022-12-09\/china-s-carbon-market-falls-far-short-of-making-a-climate-impact?leadSource=uverify%20wall\">Bloomberg report<\/a>, the cost for a power company to release a tonne of CO2 in China averaged less than $9 in 2022, compared to $85 in the EU.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, Mei\u2019an thinks that CBAM could motivate China\u2019s national carbon market to improve further, such as by expanding into more sectors, in order to support companies to deal with CBAM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a class=\"wp-block-cd-related-news alignright block--related-news loading\" data-post-id=\"79918\"><div class=\"block--related-news__image\"><\/div><div class=\"block--related-news__content\"><span class=\"block--related-news__heading\">Recommended<\/span><span class=\"block--related-news__title\"><\/span><\/div><\/a>\n\n\n\n<p>Chinese officials <a href=\"https:\/\/news.cnstock.com\/news,bwkx-202111-4789219.htm\">had planned<\/a> to incorporate eight sectors \u2013 petrochemicals, chemicals, building materials, iron and steel, non-ferrous metals, paper-making, power and aviation \u2013 into the national carbon market by 2025.
