China’s power market is undergoing a significant transformation, driven by ongoing reforms to introduce market-based mechanisms and enhance efficiency in electricity trading. Provincial-level spot market pilots have become key testing grounds for these reforms, offering valuable insights into how market dynamics, pricing mechanisms, and participant behaviours evolve under new regulatory and operational frameworks. Among these pilots, the Jiangsu Spot Market stands out as one of the most closely watched cases. With the release of its first batch of results, industry stakeholders are eager to understand what these early outcomes reveal about the functioning and performance of the market.

To explore these developments, on Friday, 14th November, the Energy Working Group is pleased to invite Mr Cory Combs, Associate Director at Trivium China, to share his expert analysis at an online one-hour session.

Recent regulatory developments—such as the release of national sustainability disclosure standards, the expansion of China’s carbon emissions trading scheme, and the introduction of PCF-related pilot initiatives in chemical industrial parks—have underlined the increasing urgency for companies to build robust PCF measurement and reporting capabilities. However, diverging methodologies, data gaps, and regulatory ambiguities continue to present challenges.

To foster mutual understanding and practical dialogue, the PCR Working Group will lead a seminar focused on aligning PCF policy developments and sharing industry best practices for PCF implementation.
