However, the Chinese authorities have argued that China cannot be expected to make a significant contribution to the carbon emission problem unless it receives substantial international aid for this purpose. This contrasts sharply with the wishes of the proponents of controlling CO2 emissions. This paper is devoted to explaining this difference in opinion by examining some aspects of the Chinese energy system and by analysing the economic implications of possible future CO2 emissions limits in China.
