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...

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 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...

Reconsidering climate mitigation policy in the UK
Arregui, Nicolas; Parry, Ian W. H. - 2021
The UK has pledged to cut greenhouse gases 68 percent below 1990 levels by 2030, to be emissions neutral by 2050, and to phase out internal combustion engine vehicles by 2030. Much progress has been made, but fully achieving these ambitious objectives with the current policy framework will be...

Voluntary corporate climate initiatives and regulatory loom : batten down the hatches
Ilić, Dragan; Mollet, Janick Christian - 2015
The rationale of voluntary corporate initiatives is often explained with preparedness for future regulation. We test this hypothesis for the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX) and the Climate Leaders (CL), two popular voluntary US environmental programs to curb carbon emission that were operating...

Endogenous climate coalitions and free trade : building the missing link
Kuhn, Thomas; Pestow, Radomir; Zenker, Anja - 2018
In this paper, we discuss the endogenous formation of climate coalitions in an issue-linkage regime. In particular, we propose to build a link to the issue of preferential free trade. Trade privileges exclusively granted to members of the climate coalition work as an incentive mechanism for...

Optimal stabilization in an emission permits market
Gerlagh, Reyer; Wan, Roweno J.R.K - 2018
We develop a 2-period emission trading model for a stock pollutant with demand shocks resolving over time. We find precise conditions for efficiency of a stabilization mechanism where cumulative available permits decrease with excess supply in early periods. Our model describes the stabilization...

Regulating stock externalities
Gerlagh, Reyer; Heijmans, Roweno - 2018
We develop a dynamic regulation game for a stock externality under asymmetric information and future market uncertainty. Within this framework, regulation is characterized as the implementation of a welfare-maximization program conditional on informational constraints. We identify the most...

The use of revenues from carbon pricing
Marten, Melanie; Van Dender, Kurt - 2019
The paper collects comprehensive and detailed data on what 40 OECD and G20 economies do with the revenues from carbon taxes, emissions trading systems, and excise taxes on energy use. It notes that constraints – which can take the form of political commitments or legal earmarks – on revenue...
