  processes; to strategic proposing facilitate compliant and efficient integration of carbon trading with RWA technology; and concluding with future outlooks. to and case studies analyze identify practical technical, evaluating systematically comprehensively and optimization strategies Research Methodology: The study employs four literature review is methodological approaches. First, conducted and domestic international studies on carbon trading, RWA (Real-Time technology, policy documents, and Asset Valuation) industry reports, foundations. establishing theoretical Second, are performed by examining implemented RWA projects for carbon assets globally to summarize key experiences challenges. Third, regulatory analysis integrates China's market environment and policy requirements to examine compliance pathways for technology integration. Finally, systems analysis treats carbon trading markets and RWA technology as an organic whole, legal, regulatory, and market factors to propose holistic solutions. II. Related Concepts and Theoretical Foundations 2.1 Definition of Core Concepts 2.1.1 Carbon Trading Carbon trading, or carbon emission rights trading, refers to a market-based emission reduction mechanism that treats greenhouse gas emission allowances such as carbon dioxide as tradable commodities within government- regulated market systems. The core framework operates on "cap-and-trade" principles: governments establish regional or industry-wide carbon emission ceilings and allocate emission allowances to enterprises. Companies with actual emissions below their quotas can sell surplus allowances for profit, while those exceeding quotas must purchase additional allowances through the market or face penalties.

  Furthermore, the research period largely precedes the strengthening of China's "Dual Carbon" policy framework; future work should examine how policies like carbon markets and green finance moderate the identified relationship. Future research should explore data refinement, methodological advances, and international comparisons to build a more systematic theoretical framework for global green trade and corporate low-carbon development. Second, this study does not account for other potential moderating variables, such as corporate governance and policy interactions; subsequent studies could employ moderation models to explore these channels in depth.

  Although the emissions trading system encourages businesses to move in this direction, it can be challenging for them to efficiently manage their carbon assets owing to issues such as lack of standardised methods for tracking emissions across suppliers and manufacturers and the fragmentation of carbon markets.
