Abstract

In order to promote the consumption and utilisation of clean energy and reduce the tax burden of benchmark electricity pricing policy, China has implemented a nationwide trial of green power certificate issuance and subscription systems. To further advance the adoption of clean energy and mitigate the fiscal impact of the benchmark tariff policy, this paper constructs a multi-policy coupling model with interaction terms to assess the fiscal relief effect of green certificate trading under the coexistence of benchmark electricity pricing policies and the green certificate system in China. Additionally, the model explores the effects of different trading mechanisms and quota schemes (free market for green certificates vs. mandatory market for electricity quotas) on the pricing strategies of heterogeneous sellers and compliance decisions of heterogeneous quota holders, quantifying synergistic or offsetting effects among different policy instruments in the Chinese context.
