Trade, Leakage, and the Design of a Carbon Tax
Environmental and Energy Policy and the Economy, 2022Climate policies vary widely across countries, with some countries imposing stringent emissions policies and others doing very little. When climate policies vary across countries, energy-intensive industries have an incentive to relocate to places with few or no emissions restrictions, an effect known as leakage.

Carbon leakage is one of the major issues facing policymakers today when designing environmental regulation. While the empirical and trade literature on carbon leakage is rich, much less is known about the implications of carbon leakage risk on optimal regulatory policies under asymmetric information.

Carbon leakage: pollution, trade or politics? [PDF]
Environment, Development and Sustainability, 2015 In recent years, carbon leakage has attracted widespread attention from both environmental researchers and a broader public. Despite its popularity, there has been some confusion around the concept of carbon leakage, resulting from very different and sometimes imprecise definitions of a phenomenon that can be calculated using different, outcome ...

Because of the difficulties in forming international climate agreements, most climate policies have been the result of unilateral action. There is widespread concern that unilateral policies are ineffective because emission reductions in abating countries are offset by increases in nonabating countries.

Carbon Leakage with Forestation Policies
Research Papers in Economics, 2011This paper analyzes carbon leakage due to reduced emissions from deforestation (RED). We find that leakage with RED is good because the policy induces afforestation that contributes to a further carbon sequestration. By ignoring the domestic component of carbon leakage, the literature can either overestimate or underestimate leakage, depending on the ...

Carbon Leakage and Trade Adjustment Policies [PDF]
, 2012 A modified version of the CGE GTAP-E model is used to assess economic and carbon emission effects related to alternative policy measures implemented to reduce carbon leakage. We explore a set of scenarios and compare solutions where Kyoto Annex I countries introduce carbon border taxes based on domestic carbon tax in order to solve the carbon leakage ...

Carbon leakages: a general equilibrium view
Economic Theory, 2011The effectiveness of unilateral action to curb carbon emissions has been dismissed because of possible “carbon leakages”, this referring to the rise of emissions in non-participating countries. This paper offers a general equilibrium (GE) exploration of the key mechanisms and factors underlying the size of carbon leakages.

Carbon Leakage: The Impact of Asymmetric Regulation on Carbon‐Emitting Production
Production and Operations Management, 2021Regions with carbon emission regulations bear the risk of “carbon leakage” if local producers shift production capacity to an unregulated region. We investigate the problem for a producer subject to geographically asymmetric emission regulation with uncertain future emission price.

Vertical Targeting and Leakage in Carbon Policy [PDF]
American Economic Review, 2011 This paper examines the intersection between two aspects of climate policy design. The first is the point of regulation: should it be placed on pollution sources, carbon-rich inputs, or consumers? The second aspect concerns the external effects of a local climate policy.
