Reply to comment by amatulic in [OC] 2020 Average price of carbon emissions by scottpaulin
A carbon price means an additional price (a tax or a fee or an allowance that has to be bought) for emitting carbon by burning fossil fuels.
As far as I know, both the US and China don't have a national carbon price.
The US has it in some states like California, China has some test projects but I think they are not yet rolled out on a larger scale.

That's true. The point remains that one cannot tell what "price" means in the context of that chart. Maybe it's carbon credits, given that US and China are omitted. Only the OP really knows.

Oh I didn't know there were plans in US and some test projects in China
