Carbon Abatement and Leakage in China’s Regional Carbon Emission Trading
Emission trading schemes (ETS) are increasingly becoming a popular policy instrument to balance carbon abatement and economic growth. As a globally unified carbon pricing system has not yet been established, whether regionally operated ETSs cause carbon ...

Equilibrium models for the carbon leakage probem [PDF]
Carbon leakage in this pape ris the phenomenon whereby Electricity Intensive Industries subject to harsh environmental standards move their activity or part of it to more environmentally lenient regions. Carbon leakage has been mentioned as a possible outcome of the EU Emission Trading Scheme. Different studies are underway to assess the reality of the

Emissions trading system: bridging the gap between environmental targets and fair competition
The effectiveness of the European Emissions Trading System in supporting a level playing field while reducing total emissions is tested. While data show a robust impact on the environment as a steady decrease in carbon emissions is observed, it is ...

Smart Hedging against Carbon Leakage [PDF]
SUMMARY Policy makers in the EU and elsewhere are concerned that unilateral pricing of the carbon externality induces carbon leakage through relocation of emission-intensive and trade-exposed production to other regions. A common measure to mitigate such leakage is to combine an emission trading system with output-based allocation (OBA ...

Intermediate input linkage and carbon leakage [PDF]
AbstractClimate regulations tend to target energy-intensive sectors whose products are widely used in industrial production as intermediate inputs, and carbon abatement may be partially offset by intermediate input-led leakage. This paper aims to examine the impact of intermediate input linkages on carbon leakage both theoretically and empirically. The

Reducing the Decarbonisation Cost Burden for EU Energy-Intensive Industries
Carbon leakage features prominently in the climate policy debate in economies implementing climate policies, especially in the EU. The imposition of carbon pricing impacts negatively the competitiveness of energy-intensive industries, inducing their ...

Carbon leakage and agriculture [PDF]
The risks of carbon leakage associated with climate policies in the agricultural sector remains under-researched. Studies to date suggest that carbon pricing policies implemented by a single country, or small group of countries, reduce global emissions but also affect the international competitiveness of these countries’ agricultural sectors and induce

The Cost of Carbon Leakage: Britain’s Carbon Price Support and Cross-border Electricity Trade
Carbon taxes create global benefits unless offset by increased emissions elsewhere. An additional carbon tax in one country may cause leakage through imports and will also increase costs by creating a wedge between economic marginal costs in different ...

Targeted Carbon Tariffs - Carbon Leakage and Welfare Effects [PDF]
Climate effects of unilateral carbon policies are undermined by carbon leakage. To counteract leakage and increase global cost-effectiveness carbon tariffs can be imposed on the emissions embodied in imports from non-regulating regions. We present a theoretical analysis on the economic incentives for emission abatement of producers subjected to carbon ...

Carbon Exchanges: European Experience in Developing the Mechanism of Emission Permit Trading [PDF]
The system for trading permits for greenhouse gas emissions is currently being presented as one of the most promising mechanisms for influencing climate problems.
