Refunding Emission Payments: Output-Based versus Expenditure-Based Refunding

Hagem, Cathrine; Hoel, Michael Olaf; Sterner, Thomas - 2020

We analyse two mechanism designs for refunding emission payments to polluting firms: output-based refunding (OBR) and expenditure-based refunding (EBR). In both instruments, emission fees are returned to the polluting industry, typically making the policy more politically acceptable than a...
