Rules vs. targets : climate treaties under uncertainty

Gersbach, Hans; Oberpriller, Quirin - 2012 - This version: April 2012

We demonstrate the advantages of a climate treaty based solely on rules for international permit markets when there is uncertainty about abatement costs and environmental damages. Such a ‘Rules Treaty’ comprises a scaling factor and a refunding rule. Each signatory can freely choose the...

The safe carbon budget

Ploeg, Frederick van der - 2017 - Revised August 2017

Cumulative emissions drive peak global warming and determine the safe carbon budget compatible with staying below 2oC or 1.5oC. The safe carbon budget is lower if uncertainty about the transient climate response is high and risk tolerance low. Together with energy costs this budget determines...

Climate Policy Design Under Uncertainty

Pizer, William A. - 2008

The uncertainty surrounding both costs and benefits associated with global climate change mitigation creates enormous hurdles for scientists, stakeholders, and decisionmakers. A key issue is how policy choices balance uncertainty about costs and benefits. This balance arises in terms of the time...

Spatial incidence of large-scale power plant curtailment costs

Steinhäuser, J. Micha; Eisenack, Klaus - 2015

Strongly correlated and spatially concentrated curtailment of power plants strongly affects the electricity market. Such curtailment is observed during heat waves in middle Europe, for example. First, curtailed power plants need to be substituted by more expensive ones. Second, additional...

Optimal management of markets for bankable emission permits

Lintunen, Jussi; Kuusela, Olli-Pekka - 2015

We examine the optimal management of emission permit markets when banking but not borrowing of permits is allowed. The regulator maximizes expected social welfare through an optimal allocation rule in an infinite horizon setting. The policy is second-best as the emission cap is set before the...

Global warming, technological change and trade in carbon energy : challenge or threat?

Stephan, Gunter; Müller-Fürstenberger, Georg - 2014

Is it possible to combat global climate change through North-to-South technology transfer even without a global climate treaty? Or do carbon leakage and the rebound effect imply that it is possible to take advantage of technological improvements under the umbrella of a global arrangement only?...

The politics of market linkage : linking domestic climate policies with international political economy

Green, Jessica F.; Sterner, Thomas; Wagner, Gernot - 2014

After twenty years of global negotiations, the world is still far from a comprehensive climate agreement. The "top-down" approach embodied by the Kyoto Protocol has all but stalled, chiefly due to disagreements over levels of ambition and objections to financial transfers. To avoid those...

Carbon prices for the next hundred years

Gerlagh, Reyer; Liski, Matti - 2014

World income grows fast without verifiable climate-change impacts on the economy. The growth spell can end if climate impacts turn real but this can take decades to learn. We develop a tractable stochastic climate-economy model with a hidden-state impact process to evaluate the contributions of...

Carbon pricing under binding political constraints

Jenkins, Jesse D.; Karplus, Valerie J. - Joint Institute for Strategic Energy Analysis - 2016

The economic prescription for climate change is clear: price carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gas emissions to internalize climate damages. In practice, a variety of political economy constraints prevent the introduction of a carbon price equal to the full social cost of emissions. This...
