Non-Annex I parties announced the voluntary emission reduction targets including the U.S. in the conference of party. NAMAs would be focused to solve the negotiation clue for the post-kyoto regime. Since the country would not be involved in Annex I parties, the voluntary carbon market would be created for the greenhouse gas reduction targets. According to Bali Roadmap, voluntary carbon market should be constructed by the MRV manners since this country does not belong to Annex I parties. Carbon point system would be proposed by the ways of the international voluntary emission reduction credit. The voluntary carbon market should involve the potential GHG reduction credit and link with the ETS in the country. This study proposed the way of linkage between ETS and voluntary carbon market including the carbon-point system.

Although awareness of the need to respond to climate change is expanding, various controversies are being raised about the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). The EU has announced that they will implement CBAM as responding to climate change and preventing carbon leakage. However, the questions are raised as to whether it is actually effective in preventing carbon leakage. Above all, CBAM has its own contradictions, thus it could not be easy to implement. This is because the possibility of violation of the WTO principles is high and there are many issues in implementation. Emission Trading System (ETS) based on CBAM differs by country, and international linkage is not easy in that ETS is not a widely used system worldwide. The EU's CBAM is highly likely to be used as a trade restrictive tool, and is inevitably subject to trade disputes in that it imposes additional tariffs. The unilateral implementation of CBAM should be restrained unless support from the international community and consideration for developing countries are not taken into account.

Climate change has been identified as one with the greatest challenges facing nations, government, business and over future decades. Activities to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by the Kyoto Protocol, the international community has been in progress. Korea also has introduced the Emission trading system to reduce greenhouse emission from the supervision of the government. Greenhouse gases emissions quantity should be internationally recognized. Mutual Recognition Arrangement should be recognized as the same greenhouse gas emission. International recognition of domestic verification body of international mutual recognition is required. Efforts are needed to secure the equivalence between the emission rights through direct cooperation with the relative nation accreditation body. Early entry into the IAF/PAC GHG MLA is essential for demonstrating equivalence between greenhouse gas emissions. Emissions trading will also require connection to the EU ETS, California, USA, and Tokyo, Japan to link Emissions trading. In the case of establishing accreditation standards and accreditation criteria, it will be necessary to distinguish between the domestic Energy Target Management System and the Emission Trading System. Independent greenhouse gases verification bodies should be established to meet the requirements of IAF and PAC. It is necessary to revise the qualification criteria for the verification of the greenhouse gas verification body according to international standards requirements. It is necessary to support the role of accreditation bodies of domestic greenhouse gas verification bodies. It is required to join international organizations of international mutual recognition of international trade and the need for pilot projects to link greenhouse gas emissions. The core link to our emission trading system is called EU-ETS, and we will need to join the IAF/PAC GHG MLA GHG. The International Mutual Recognition Agreement (IAF) is expected to allow international interoperability of GHG emissions verification between EA and the PAC. By signing a PAC GHG MLA, it will need to be prepared to prepare for the pilot project to link the emission trading system.

2012년 말 카타르 도하에서 열렸던 제18차 COP를 통해 교토의정서가 2020년까지 연장되면서 CDM, JI, ET 등의 교토 메커니즘 역시 지속하기로 결정되었다. 그러나 최근 EU ETS를 중심으로 국제 배출권거래 시장에서 일어났던 몇몇 제도변화와 배출권 가격의 하락으로 인해 CDM 프로젝트들은 사업 지속가능성 측면에서 위기에 처해 있다. 특히 국내 비(非)$CO_2$ 온실가스 관련 CDM 사업들이 가장 직접적인 영향을 받았다. 본 연구에서는 국제 시장에서 거래되고 있는 배출권들에 대한 현 상황과 가격 변화를 살펴보고, 국내의 대표적인 비(非)$CO_2$ 관련 CDM 사업에 대한 사례분석을 통해 배출권거래 시장의 제도변화가 어떤 과정을 통해 해당 사업에 영향을 미쳤는지를 살펴보았다. 본 논문의 정책적 함의는 크게 두 가지로 요약될 수 있다. 첫째, 2015년 국내 배출권 거래제도 시행을 앞두고 온실가스 저감기술에 대한 활용과 투자 환경이 활발하게 조성되기 위한 정책지원 방향을 제시한다. 둘째, 양자 크레딧 제도와 같이 기존 CDM 사업을 보완하는 정책들이 ODA 방식과 연계될 경우 기업들이 해당 기술에 대한 투자 시 불확실성을 줄이고 보다 폭넓은 선택이 가능함을 밝힌다.

Kyoto Protocol is an international convention on concrete performance program for UNFCCC(United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change), which regulate and prevent to global warming and officially came into effect on February 16, 2005. Kyoto flexible mechanisms, the agreed environmental system in March 1997 in the Third Conference of Parties in UNFCCC General Assembly, Emission Trading System(ETS), Clean Development Mechanism(CDM) and Joint Implementation(JI), are key policies related to environment. In advanced countries, greenhouse gas emissions should be reduced average 5.2% level compared to 1990 in total emissions during 2008-2012. World leading carbon market finished the trial on the EU ETS I greenhouse gas emissions trading system, EU ETS II is operated regularly after 2008. World Bank leads to make 'Prototype Carbon Fund(PCF)' in April 2004, which is the world first carbon fund and a representative public carbon fund type, World Bank operate various funds including present PCF. Thus, I would like to propose as follows in relation to this study: First, in the validity analysis of carbon funds, it would be needed to analyze the Emission Reduction Cost Efficiency(ERCE) of carbon. The ERCE is a break-even value which brings the Net Present Value(NPV) to zero. NPV approach is used among projects and it enables potential projects to be compared and evaluated the ERCE on the basis of the net present value of net future cash flows. Therefore, according to results of analysis, carbon funds should be developed and invested. Second, it would be necessary to allow of issuing bonds together with carbon funds, carbon finance etc. Third, carbon funds, it would be reasonable to have a relatively enough maturity in project and as a financial derivatives in the international financial markets, it is needed various types of transactions. Fourth, it would be needed to standardize the carbon emissions trading for more efficiently. Fifth, it would be necessary to establish and invest in various kinds of domestic and overseas global carbon funds, including governments, privates, governments and privates sectors. And it is also needed to establish the medium and long term plans for carbon funds. Sixth, it would be needed to foster the advanced trade mechanisms for carbon funds in the most effective ways. Finally, carbon funds should be used in harmony with international societies to reduce global warming as the social responsible investing funds and it should be contribute to sustainable development. In addition, it would seem that carbon funds should be studied on establishing the contributable standard of sustainable development in the future assignment.

본 연구는 유럽지역 내 20개 연결계통국가들을 대상으로 2000년부터 2014년까지의 패널 자료를 구성하여 유럽이 2005년에 도입한 배출권거래시장을 기점으로 표본기간을 전과 후로 나누어 탄소배출량 결정요인을 이분산과 자기상관의 문제를 고려한 패널 GLS 방법으로 추정하였다. 종속변수로는 개별국가들에서의 탄소배출량이 사용되었으며, 설명변수로는 발전원별 발전량 비중, 이웃 국가들의 전력수급률, 자원보유국의 전력생산량, 발전원집중도, 산업부문에서의 1인당 총에너지 사용량, 전력가격에서의 세금, 1인당 전력 순수출량, 1인당 국토면적의 크기 등이 사용되었다. 추정결과에 의하면, 2005년을 기점으로 전과 후 모두에서 원전과 재생에너지 발전량 비중, 발전원집중도, 1인당 국토면적의 크기 등은 탄소배출량에 음(-)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타난 반면 석탄 발전량 비중, 이웃 국가들의 전력수급률, 자원보유국의 전력생산량, 산업부문에서의 1인당 총에너지 사용량 등은 탄소배출량에 양(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이외 가스 발전량 비중과 전력가격에서의 세금은 2005년 이전에 대해서만 각각 탄소배출량에 음(-)과 양(+)의 영향을 미쳤으며, 1인당 전력 순수출량은 2005년 이후에 대해서만 탄소배출량에 음(-)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 저탄소 녹색성장으로의 탄소배출량 절감을 위한 거시적인 대응전략을 제시하며 전력교역시장을 고려한 중장기 전원믹스 최적화 방안과 그 역할에 대한 의미와 가치를 시사하고 있다.
