Core Viewpoint - The promotion of a comprehensive green and low-carbon transformation in the economy and society has become a crucial task for local development, with a focus on the establishment of a "building carbon credit mechanism" to enhance the value of emission reduction effects in green buildings [1] Group 1: Current Situation and Challenges - China's construction sector accounts for approximately 40% of the country's total carbon emissions, with public building operation emissions contributing about 9% [1] - The highly decentralized nature of carbon emissions in the construction sector makes it difficult to incorporate them into mandatory quota management, and the complexity of emission reduction data hampers real-time monitoring and precise measurement [1] - The limited economic value of individual voluntary emission reduction projects in the construction sector poses challenges in matching the high costs and implementation barriers of CCER development [1] Group 2: Initiatives and Developments - In 2023, Greenland Jinchuang, in collaboration with other institutions, launched the "building carbon credit mechanism" at the Guizhou Low Carbon Trading Center, which quantifies and certifies the greenhouse gas reduction effects of voluntary emission reduction projects in public buildings [2] - By the end of 2025, the Guizhou Low Carbon Trading Center has listed 11 domestic building carbon credit products, facilitating nearly 30,000 tons of public building carbon reduction to be recognized as tradable intangible assets on financial statements [2] - The trading of carbon credits is expected to generate approximately 1.5 million yuan in direct economic benefits for owners, based on a transaction average price of 54 yuan/ton from the previous year [2] Group 3: Recommendations for Development - It is recommended that the Shanghai government recognize the building carbon credit mechanism as a practical outcome supporting the national "dual carbon" strategy and promote it in pilot areas such as Baoshan District and Qingpu District [3] - The Shanghai government should support the Guizhou Low Carbon Trading Center in developing high-credibility methodologies and corresponding carbon credit products to enhance the service capacity of the voluntary emission reduction mechanism [3] - The recognition and expansion of the application of high-quality carbon credits from the Guizhou Low Carbon Trading Center into the Shanghai carbon market is suggested, allowing for carbon offsetting through the purchase of these credits [4] - Continuous exploration of international cooperation in energy conservation and carbon credit trading is recommended, leveraging previous experiences to enhance participation in the international carbon market [4]
