ABSTRACT

The climate crisis is a severe environmental issue currently faced by all mankind. Carbon dioxide emissions caused by household energy consumption are playing an increasingly dominant role. Personal carbon trading is a market mechanism targeted at consumers for carbon emission reduction, aiming to promote carbon emission reduction in household energy consumption. It is a policy proposal that has received considerable attention in recent years. This paper reviews the development of personal carbon trading, explores the model and operational mechanism of personal carbon trading from differences in range, distribution, and pricing, and evaluates the mechanism from equity, efficiency, and effectiveness. It is concluded that personal carbon trading can internalize the externalities of consumers’ personal carbon emissions and incentivize consumers to participate in carbon emission reduction through a price signal. Personal carbon trading is an organic innovation of a binding market economic instrument and voluntary policy tools, enabling every citizen to consciously participate in environmental policy practice. It is of great significance to achieving the “double carbon” goal and high-quality and sustainable economic development.
