What are Carbon Assets？
“
Carbon assets are credits verified by the government or international regulatory body. They represent a reduction or avoidance of greenhouse gas emissions.
“
Carbon assets can be traded in both compulsory and voluntary carbon markets.
What are Carbon Markets？
Compulsory Carbon Market
Created and regulated by compulsory international and national or regional emissions trading systems.Emission Allowance
Compulsory Carbon Market
Created and regulated by compulsory international and national or regional emissions trading systems.Emission AllowanceComplianceUnder the Chinese National Emissions Trading System or other regional pilot markets, emission-controlled enterprises can trade or auction off carbon emission allowances.
Certified Emission ReductionOffsetCertified Emission Reductions (eg. CCERs) can be used to offset carbon emissions in compulsory and voluntary carbon markets. In compulsory markets, annual compliance will also depend on the upper-limit of offset determined by local authorities.
Renewable EnergyReductionIn the renewable energy trading market, the amount of authorized renewable electricity purchased by the emitters will not be calculated into total emissions. The corresponding amount of emission allowances will also be exempted from annual compliance.

Enterprises and individuals buying carbon credits voluntarily for purposes other than compliance reasons.Certified Emission ReductionNeutralCertified Emission Reductions (eg.

Enterprises and activities that do not enforce compliance may also voluntarily purchase CERs for offsetting and carbon neutralization.
Renewable EnergyReductionEnterprises that do not enforce compliance can reduce their own scope 2 emissions by purchasing renewable electricity.
Voluntary Emission ReductionNeutralThe emission reductions issued by relevant project owners and that satisfy domestic or international standards can be used in voluntary carbon markets.
Renewable Energy CertificateReductionRenewable energy power generation projects, which meet requirements of relevant international or domestic standards, can apply for renewable energy certificates. The certificates can be used to offset emissions from the electricity-buying behavior of enterprises and activities.
