The Emission trading Scheme is an important economic measures to abate greenhouse emission, and its prime step is to determinate the covered sector as well as threshold of covered emission sources within specified sector. In theory, the more sectors covered within ETS, the better environmental effectiveness and efficiency of economic operations can be achieved. In practice, however, all sectors cannot be properly embraced in ETS, and there will be other more appropriate reduction options for some sectors according to economic feasibility analysis on consideration of technological factor, and motivator difference of emission reduction. Some conclusions are useful for construction of China National ETS in near future by analysis of covered sector system in theory and practice.
