coalition theory, we find that the potential benefits of water trade may not be sufficient to make all agents in the river …We analyse river sharing games in which a set of agents located along a river shares the available water. Using … cooperate and acknowledge property rights as a prerequisite for trade. Specifically, a complete market for river water may not …

Alternative Paths toward a Low Carbon World

Bosetti, Valentina; Carraro, Carlo; Tavoni, Massimo - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2010

This paper analyzes the economic and investment implications of a series of climate mitigation scenarios, characterized by different levels of ambition in terms of long term stabilization goals and the transition to attain them. In particular, the implications of fairly ambitious scenarios are...

The Optimal Climate Policy Portfolio when Knowledge Spills Across Sectors

Massetti, Emanuele; Nicita, Lea - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2010

This paper studies the implications for climate policy of the interactions between environmental and knowledge externalities. Using a numerical analysis performed with the hybrid integrated assessment model WITCH, extended to include mutual spillovers between the energy and the non-energy...

How Does Climate Policy Affect Technical Change? An Analysis of the Direction and Pace of Technical Progress in a Climate-Economy Model

Nicita, Lea; Carraro, Carlo; Massetti, Emanuele - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2009

This paper analyses whether and how a climate policy designed to stabilize greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is likely to change the direction and pace of technical progress. The analysis is performed using an upgraded version of WITCH, a dynamic integrated regional model of the world economy....

Modeling Biased Technical Change. Implications for Climate Policy

Cian, Enrica De; Carraro, Carlo; Nicita, Lea - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2010

Climate-economy models aiming at quantifying the costs and effects of climate change impacts and policies have become important tools for climate policy decision-making. Although there are several important dimensions along which models differ, this paper focuses on a key component of climate...

Banking Permits: Economic Efficiency and Distributional Effects

Bosetti, Valentina; Carraro, Carlo; Massetti, Emanuele - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2008

Most analyses of the Kyoto flexibility mechanisms focus on the cost effectiveness of “where” flexibility (e.g. by showing that mitigation costs are lower in a global permit market than in regional markets or in permit markets confined to Annex 1 countries). Less attention has been devoted to...

Emissions Trading Regimes and Incentives to Participate in International Climate Agreements

Buchner, Barbara; Carraro, Carlo - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2003

This paper analyses whether different emissions trading regimes provide different incentives to participate in a cooperative climate agreement. Different incentive structures are discussed for those countries, namely the US, Russia and China, that are most important in the climate negotiation...

Delayed Action and Uncertain Targets. How Much Will Climate Policy Cost?

Bosetti, Valentina; Tavoni, Massimo; Carraro, Carlo; … - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2008

Despite the growing concern about actual on-going climate change, there is little consensus about the scale and timing of actions needed to stabilise the concentrations of greenhouse gases. Many countries are unwilling to implement effective mitigation strategies, at least in the short-term, and...

Regional and Sub-Global Climate Blocs.A Game-Theoretic Perspective on Bottom-up Climate Regimes

Carraro, Carlo; Buchner, Barbara - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2005

No international regime on climate change is going to be fully effective in controlling GHG emissions without the involvement of countries such as China, India, the United States, Australia, and possibly other developing countries. This highlights an unambiguous weakness of the Kyoto Protocol,...

Modelling Economic Impacts of Alternative International Climate Policy Architectures. A Quantitative and Comparative Assessment of Architectures for Agreement

Bosetti, Valentina; Carraro, Carlo; Sgobbi, Alessandra; … - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2008

This paper provides a quantitative comparison of the main architectures for an agreement on climate policy. Possible successors to the Kyoto protocol are assessed according to four criteria: economic efficiency; environmental effectiveness; distributional implications; and their political...
