Original title: Ministry of Ecology and Environment: Ensure the quality of carbon emission data and "zero tolerance" for fraud
At the regular policy briefing held on the 26th, Zhao Yingmin, vice minister of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, said that data quality is the lifeline of the carbon market, and the upcoming "Interim Regulations on the Management of Carbon Emission Trading" has clarified the regulatory responsibilities of relevant departments, and will have "zero tolerance" for carbon emission data fraud, severe penalties, and disclosure of relevant violations of laws and regulations.
Zhao Yingmin, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment: The interim regulations put forward new and higher requirements for data quality management, and in order to effectively maintain the lifeline of data quality, the "Regulations" have really grown "teeth" in cracking down on carbon emission data fraud and curbing false reporting and concealment of carbon emission data, which can be summarized in six words, namely: strict control, strict investigation, and strict punishment.
According to Zhao Yingmin, strict control is mainly reflected in: clarifying the prohibitions and penalties of relevant institutions and personnel, continuously reducing the space for data fraud through supporting systems and norms, and ensuring that data cannot be tampered with through the construction and improvement of the national carbon market management platform, and the use of blockchain and digital technology. At the same time, the working mode of annual verification and daily supervision will continue to strengthen data quality review. Strict investigation is embodied in the fact that the clues and doubts found in the problems are not clarified, and the problems are not rectified in place. The severe punishment is reflected in the "zero tolerance" for the falsification of carbon emission data, strengthening supervision and inspection, and increasing the punishment, and the "Regulations" have made specific and detailed provisions in these aspects.
Zhao Yingmin, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment: Last year, we organized a total of 134 training sessionsThe training of 10,000 people has achieved full coverage of market participants, and compared with the first compliance cycle, the number of enterprises with non-standard carbon emission data found by supervision and assistance in the second compliance cycle has decreased significantly, and a set of effective, replicable and generalizable management experience has been explored.
