On June 22,2022,the European Union passed the proposal of the carbon border adjustment mechanism,which will include the steel industry in the scope of taxation,and put forward new require-ments for the carbon emission measurement of China's steel industry.In the context of carbon emissions trading,the carbon emission accounting and measurement of steel industry relies on the"Guidelines for Accounting and Reporting Greenhouse Gas Emissions of Chinese Iron and Steel Enterprises(Trial),which mainly considers the carbon emissions within the boundaries of enterprises,covering the carbon e-missions of steel production stage and manufacturing stage,and there is a lack of study on the carbon e-mission measurement of steel products.Based on the life cycle theory and combined with the carbon emis-sion measurement standards of the steel industry,the author conducted research on the carbon emission measurement methods of steel products.The study will provide technical support for China's steel products to cope with the carbon border adjustment mechanism.
