We compare several options for a border adjustment to the European Union Emission Trading  System. We discuss their WTO‐compatibility and provide a quantitative assessment based on the ...

This article compares several configurations of a border adjustment (BA) to the EU Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS) that are designed to maximize their World Trade Organisation (WTO) compatibility, either with the GATT general regime or with Article XX (its environmental exception rule). The...

We compare four proposals for the European Union greenhouse gas Emission Trading Scheme (ets): auctioning of allowances, distribution of allowances proportional to current output, auctioning with border adjustment, and a hybrid distribution with auctioning for power production and output-based...

We analyse variations of carbon emissions in the European cement industry from 1990 to 2011, at the European level(EU 27), and at the national level for six major producers (Germany, France, Spain, United Kingdom, Italy and Poland). We apply a Log-Mean Divisia Index (LMDI) method, crossing data...

We compare several options for a border adjustment to the European Union Emission Trading System. We discuss their WTO‐compatibility and provide a quantitative assessment based on the partial equilibrium model CASE II. We conclude that, firstly, if the EU wants to implement such a border...
