A big drop in China's highest-emitting industries in December with coal and gas-fired power down 3%, steel output 10% and cement output 7%, closing down 1%, 4% and 7% for the year. Clean power generation grew fast enough to cover all demand growth and push fossil generation down.
❗️Official: China national ETS will expand to three industry sectors in 2025: Steel, Cement and Aluminum #CBAM ...with compliance for 2024 emissions by the end of this year. But it's soft start, and each enterprise's 2024 allocation = 2024 emissions, no financial costs/only reporting
