Abstract: Abstract In July 2021, China’s national carbon market was officially launched, after years of carbon pilots laid the institutional foundation for the establishment of the market. The study of the impact of carbon pilot on energy efficiency and energy structure can provide important reference for China’s energy transformation and sustainable development. Using a sample of 283 prefecture-level cities, the paper finds that carbon emission trading policies have a significant impact on reducing the use of energy with high carbon content, while the view that policies can improve energy efficiency fails to be proved for some reasons. Finally, the paper summarizes the conclusion and puts forward the possible research direction in the future.
