Sustainable Cooperation in Global Climate Policy: Specific Formulas and Emission Targets to Build on Copenhagen and Cancun

Bosetti, Valentina; Frankel, Jeffrey - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2011

We offer a framework to assign quantitative allocations of emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs), across countries, one budget period at a time. Under the two-part plan: (i) China, India, and other developing countries accept targets at Business as Usual (BAU) in the coming budget period, the...

Climate Uncertainty and the Necessity to Transform Global Energy Supply

Zwaan, Bob van der; Gerlagh, Reyer - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2004

This paper analyses the policy relevance of the dominant uncertainties in our current scientific understanding of the terrestrial climate system, and provides further evidence for the need to radically transform - this century - our global infrastructure of energy supply, given the global...

Taxes and Quotas for a Stock Pollutant with Multiplicative Uncertainty

Hoel, Michael; Karp, Larry - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 1999

We compare taxes and quotas when firms and the regulator have asymmetric information about abatement costs. Damages are caused by a stock pollutant. Uncertainty enters multiplicatively, i.e. it affects the slope rather than the intercept of abatement costs. We calibrate the model using cost and...

Three Key Elements of Post-2012 International Climate Policy Architecture

Olmstead, Sheila M.; Stavins, Robert N. - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2010

We describe three essential elements of an effective post-2012 international global climate policy architecture: a means to ensure that key industrialized and developing nations are involved in differentiated but meaningful ways; an emphasis on an extended time path of targets; and inclusion of...

On the Economic Determinants of Oil Production. Theoretical Analysis and Empirical Evidence for Small Exporting Countries

Cologni, Alessandro; Manera, Matteo - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2011

and empirical investigation. Under the assumptions of exogenous oil prices and world oil demand, we are able to describe … the relationship between oil production levels and changes in the conditions in world oil markets. Intertemporal … model, oil producers are subject to exogenous shocks in world oil demand and prices. Oil companies can change output levels …

Flexibility in the Market for International Carbon Credits and Price. Dynamics Difference with European Allowances

Gavard, Claire; Kirat, Djamel - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2015

We analyze the price dynamics of European allowances and international carbon credits in the second phase of the European carbon market. We develop and use a model combining fundamental drivers associated with the demand for quotas by installations and risk-return considerations related to the...

Accounting for Different Uncertainties: Implications for Climate Investments?

Hector, Svenja - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2013

The paper clarifies the link between changes in risk aversion and the effect on the consumption discount rate. In a general framework that can cope with various forms of uncertainty, it is shown that the response of the consumption discount rate to a change in risk aversion depends on some...

Leadership and International Climate Cooperation

Schwerhoff, Gregor - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2013

Which kind of reaction can a nation or group of nations expect when leading by example in climate policy? This literature survey describes possible positive reaction mechanisms from different fields of economics, some of which have scarcely been linked to climate economics previously. One effect...
