Abstract: Abstract This article provides a detailed discussion of the origins of carbon emissions and related pricing mechanisms. Using data, the article analyzes China's critical role in global carbon emission governance and its increasing reliance on carbon trading markets. In 2021, China launched the creation of a carbon emission trading market with the aim of establishing the world's largest carbon trading system that includes tradable performance requirements. This study focuses on the development of the carbon trading mechanism and pricing mechanisms, highlighting the four types of energy structure. It also classifies different regions into four models based on regional differences in carbon emissions in China. Finally, given the current uneven economic development in China, this study emphasizes the importance of designing carbon trading markets that are tailored to regional differences, managing carbon quotas differentially, and customizing price caps and floors, providing a decision-making basis for fine-grained management and realization of carbon emissions mitigation.
