Abstract

This paper studied the influence of the introduction of carbon trading system to small size highway fright transport companies in China based on cost-benefit analysis. Considering a carbon trading market consists of large number of identically small size companies, where each company is distributed the same amount of carbon credits for free and could sell or buy extra credits from the market. If the market is perfectly competitive, it will reduce the profit of the companies in the long run. The government could regulate the profit indirectly by free carbon credits and penalty for over emission.
