Abstract

As a market-based, cost-effective, and international compatible mechanism, Emission Trading Scheme (ETS) has emerged as an increasingly popular and important policy tool to control and mitigate carbon emissions. It has been applied in many energy-intensive industries such as electric, power, and steel industry. However, it appears that carbon trading practice finds limited application in building sector. This study presents an identification and analysis on the fundamental reasons hindering the public buildings’ intention to participate in Emission Trading System by utilizing the binary logit model based on the theory planned behavior. Research data are collected through questionnaire survey in Guangdong Province which is the first carbon trading pilot which extends its coverage to building sector. As a result, five causes have been identified, and discussions on their importance order have been conducted. The findings provide essential information to relevant decision-makers for identifying the focal areas and taking due actions to further promote the effective operation of ETS in China.
