摘要
《京都议定书》制定了在全球范围内流动的以碳信用为标志的无形商品的贸易体系。近年来全球碳交易市场突飞猛进,成交量从2004年的0.94×108t二氧化碳当量增长到2008年的49×108t二氧化碳当量,成交额从2004年的3.77亿欧元增长到2008年的920亿欧元。预计2009年全球碳交易量为59×108t二氧化碳当量,交易额为626亿欧元。碳交易市场的不断膨胀和交易平台的不断国际一体化,为碳信用在低碳能源和低碳技术的计价以及国际结算方面奠定了基础。同时碳信用的政府信用基础、自由存储和借贷及稀缺性、可计量性和普遍接受性都凸显出其货币特性,使得与低碳能源和低碳经济绑定的碳信用从商品过渡为国际货币的可能性进一步加大。一旦碳货币体系建立起来,碳货币的储存和占有程度就会直接影响一个国家的经济体系。在未来国际碳货币体系下,我国出口的比较优势很可能被购买碳货币所抵消。我国应采取积极政策以应对国际碳货币发展潮流,积极加入到国际碳货币体系的构建中,建立中国碳金融体系,加快健全和完善碳交易市场,使人民币在碳信用的计价和结算中占据一席之地。同时积极发展我国的低碳能源和低碳技术,为今后可能出现的碳货币体系做好储备。
The Kyoto Protocol established a trading system for intangible goods flowing worldwide which are typified by carbon credit.In recent years,the global carbon market has been growing at an amazing pace with the volume of the business rising to 49x10St of carbon dioxide equivalent in 2008 from 0.94×108t of carbon dioxide equivalent in 2004 and the value of the business from 377 million Euros in 2004 to 92 billion Eu- ros in 2008.The volume of global carbon business in 2009 is expected to reach 59×108t of carbon dioxide equivalent and the value of the business is expected to reach 62.6 billion Euros.The expanding carbon mar- ket and the increasingly integrated global carbon trading platform have laid the groundwork for the valuation and international settlement of carbon credit in respect of low-carbon energy and technologies.Meanwhile,the governmental credit basis,free storage and lending and borrowing,scarcity,measurability and general accept- ability of carbon credit underscore its monetary nature and increase the possibility that carbon credit bound with low-carbon energy and low-carbon economy transforms into an international currency from a commodity.. Once the carbon currency system is established,the degree of storage and possessing of carbon currency will directly affect a country's economy.Under the future international carbon currency system,China's comparative advantage in export will very likely be offset by the purchase of carbon currency.China should pursue proac- tive policies to deal with the challenges arising from the development of international carbon currency,partici- pate in the establishment of the international carbon currency system,set up China's own carbon financial system,perfect the carbon market and push the use of Renminbi in the evaluation and settlement of carbon credit.China should also step up its effort to develop low-carbon energy and low-carbon technologies to pre- pare for the establishment of a possible carbon currency system.
