Construction enterprises should pay close attention to carbon emission trading
In July, the national carbon emission trading market was launched, and people from all walks of life continued to pay attention to it. The first batch of 2225 power companies that have entered the market have an annual total carbon dioxide emission of more than 4 billion tons. Today, the national carbon emission trading market is "full moon", but few people talk about it in the construction industry. In fact, as a major carbon emitter, the construction industry should pay close attention to the dynamics of the carbon emission trading market.
The root cause of the construction industry's "indifference" to carbon emission trading is that, on the one hand, they do not know enough about it, on the other hand, they equate it with the relevant measures of the notice on carrying out the pilot work of carbon emission trading issued by the national development and Reform Commission in 2011. After the release of the document, the national development and Reform Commission agreed to carry out pilot projects in seven regions, including Beijing and Shenzhen. In 2013, Shenzhen launched a pilot project in the fields of industry, construction and transportation. The first batch of public buildings included in the trading system include 198 public buildings (large office buildings, shopping malls and tourist hotels). The pilot projects in other regions are similar to those in Shenzhen.
It can be seen that the previous pilot projects mainly covered existing buildings, and the scope was small. If construction enterprises compare it with the carbon emission trading that will fully cover all industries, it is definitely a misunderstanding of the country's determination to promote green and low-carbon development.
