Cost Uncertainty and Unilateral Abatement

Elofsson, Katarina - In: Environmental & Resource Economics 36 (2007) 2, pp. 143-162

Unilateral abatement is sometimes advocated in order to set a good example that will make other countries follow. The aim of this paper is to investigate whether existence of correlated cost uncertainty provides an incentive for a country to undertake unilateral abatement. The theoretical model...
