Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Complying with the forthcoming tightening of CO2 emission allocations in the EU may mean big bills for the industries affected. In this special issue of Climate Policy journal, leading experts examine the impacts on competitiveness and the commercial incentives available from the CO2 allowance allocations under the methodologies, and whether - and if so at what stage - the ETS itself may need to be amended. The study is multidisciplinary, combining economic, legal and policy analysis with specific studies of impacts on electricity, cement and other industrial sectors and the allocation issues. It brings together the results of research conducted over the past two year from various research centres and consultancies in Europe, and in particular, work commissioned by the Carbon Trust and Climate Strategies Network. Through these, it presents the most comprehensive and detailed set of analyses yet conducted of the impacts of allocation on competitiveness - one of the most critical issues for the sectors affected and for the operation of the ETS.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In order to clarify ongoing debates over the competitiveness impacts of climate change regulation, we develop a precise definition that can be estimated with available domestic production, trade, and energy price data. We use this definition and a 20+ year panel of 400+ U.S. manufacturing industries to estimate and predict the effects a U.S.-only $15 per ton CO2 price. We find competitiveness effects on the order of a 1.0 to 1.3 percent decline in production among energy-intensive manufacturing industries, representing about one-third of the policy's impacts on these firms' output.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As carbon reduction targets are being strengthened globally, it is increasingly important in Korea to comprehend the impact of two major greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction policies, Target Management System (TMS) and Emissions Trading System (ETS), on industrial competitiveness. ETS relies more on individual firms' economic incentives compared to TMS, which is a command-andcontrol regulation. While the transition from TMS to ETS in 2015 is found to have partially alleviated the burden for manufacturing firms, there is a need to enhance policy effectiveness by acknowledging their limited performance in reducing carbon emissions thus far. While TMS was introduced in 2011 with the aim of enforcing emissions reduction and enhancing energy efficiency across different sectors, heavy emitters have been managed separately through ETS since 2015. Knowing the low abatement performance in the manufacturing industry after mid-2010, the reduced burden can be attributed to two factors: i) improvement in efficiency resulting from the transition, and ii) alleviation of the burden through the provision of free allocations. The policy efforts should aim for a greater reduction by strengthening the targets for the regulated firms, which is in line with the reinforced policy goals announced in October 2021. Stricter goals are inevitable in the future, and therefore, policymakers must endeavor to bolster the sustainability of the manufacturing sectors by developing a detailed roadmap based on multiple indicators. Taking into account the varying impacts of GHG reduction policies on the competitiveness based on the energy intensity and emission intensity of each sector, the roadmap needs to be carefully crafted in order to impose a feasible burden on the regulated firms.

This book was released on 2010-02 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global climate change is one of the most significant long-term policy challenges facing the U.S., and policies to mitigate climate change will have important economic, social, and environmental implications. This report examines the potential effects of greenhouse gas emissions pricing on U.S. industries¿ internat. competitiveness and trade measures being considered as part of U.S. legislative proposals to address climate change. It examines: (1) what is known about estimating industry effects; (2) examples of industries that may be vulnerable to a loss in internat. competitiveness from emissions pricing; (3) trade measures and other approaches to address competitiveness issues; and (4) potential internat. implications of trade measures.

Download or read book Global Carbon Pricing written by Peter Cramton and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2017-06-16 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why the traditional “pledge and review” climate agreements have failed, and how carbon pricing, based on trust and reciprocity, could succeed. After twenty-five years of failure, climate negotiations continue to use a “pledge and review” approach: countries pledge (almost anything), subject to (unenforced) review. This approach ignores everything we know about human cooperation. In this book, leading economists describe an alternate model for climate agreements, drawing on the work of the late Nobel laureate Elinor Ostrom and others. They show that a “common commitment” scheme is more effective than an “individual commitment” scheme; the latter depends on altruism while the former involves reciprocity (“we will if you will”). The contributors propose that global carbon pricing is the best candidate for a reciprocal common commitment in climate negotiations. Each country would commit to placing charges on carbon emissions sufficient to match an agreed global price formula. The contributors show that carbon pricing would facilitate negotiations and enforcement, improve efficiency and flexibility, and make other climate policies more effective. Additionally, they analyze the failings of the 2015 Paris climate conference. Contributors Richard N. Cooper, Peter Cramton, Ottmar Edenhofer, Christian Gollier, Éloi Laurent, David JC MacKay, William Nordhaus, Axel Ockenfels, Joseph E. Stiglitz, Steven Stoft, Jean Tirole, Martin L. Weitzman
Download or read book Competition Law Climate Change Environmental Sustainability written by Simon Holmes and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The consensus is clear - climate change is the defining challenge of our time. Meeting this challenge requires a collaborative and inclusive response from all segments of society - including private businesses. What role then for competition law and policy? This important and timely book gathers academics, enforcers, economists, lawyers, and industry representatives to explore the applications and limitations of EU competition law in achieving environmental sustainability aims in line with the European Commission's Green Deal as well as the UN's Sustainable Development Goals. They identify the challenges of integrating environmental considerations into competition analysis presented by the existing framework, whether through cooperation by businesses, practices by dominant companies, or consideration of sustainability efficiencies in merger assessments. Practical examples across various sectors are also provided, alongside agency views from different jurisdictions, to illustrate how competition policy can facilitate a sustainable economy.
