Carbon pricing on the Russian electricity market
The paper examines the impact of pricing carbon emissions in the Russian electricity supply industry. We nd that emissions are reduced at any level of the carbon price. Most active fuel switching takes place at the carbon tax of 200...500 Roubles per tonne of CO2; but the e¤ect is uneven by zones. The social surplus turns out to be positive. A special case of a new interconnector "Ural Siberia...
متن کاملThe Regional Carbon Budget
A number of approaches have been used to infer whether Amazonia is a net source or sink for carbon. Top-down approaches based on inverse calculations with CO2 concentrations and atmospheric transport models are problematic because of a paucity of air samples and poor constraints on regional air transport. Direct measurements of changes in aboveground biomass suggest a net carbon sink in oldgrow...
متن کاملCarbon markets and technological innovation
This paper examines the effects of firm-level innovation in carbon-abatement technologies on optimal cap-and-trade schemes with and without price controls. We characterize optimal cap-and-trade regulation with price cap and price floor, and compare it to the special cases of pure taxation and simple emissions cap. Innovation shifts the tradeoff between priceand quantity-based instruments toward...
متن کاملChina’s New National Carbon Market
Publication Number: NI WP 18-01 Summary On December 19, 2017, China announced the official start of its national emissions trading system (ETS) construction program. When fully implemented, this program could more than double the volume of worldwide carbon dioxide emissions covered by either tax or tradable permit policy. Many of program’s design features reflect those of China’s pilot programs...
متن کاملElectricity pricing and market power : Evidence from Germany
The aim of this paper is to develop a methodology for measuring the exercise of potential market power in liberalized electricity markets. We therefore investigate producer behavior in the context of electricity pricing with respect to fundamental time-dependent marginal cost (TMC), i.e. CO2and fuel cost. In doing so, we do not in contrast to most current approaches to market power investigatio...
