Abstract

This chapter provides an accessible introduction to this book. First, we detail the importance of pricing and forecasting carbon market. Second, we review the pricing and forecasting carbon market from the perspectives of carbon price drivers, single scale forecasting and multiscale forecasting. Third, we provide the architecture of this book, and summarize the chapters.
