Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS), backbone of the European Union strategy to combat climate change, and its industry competitiveness implications. In light of the discussion of the revision for the coming years, this book aims to provide a toolbox of key elements to understand the EU?ETS's functioning and to reflect on crucial improvements. Specifically, besides a general overview of the first phases of the scheme and current difficulties, this book aims to (i) deploy an energy-intensive sector-level analysis, with both reference to academic literature (ex ante and ex post studies, paying a special attention to the underlying assumptions) and stakeholders positions on carbon leakage issue; (ii) present an overview of the existing ETS policy measures and worldwide experiences; (iii) reflect on the ongoing reform for the post-2020 period, starting from the European Commission's proposal and entering the technical and political debate taking place within the European institutions. The EU ETS and the European Industry Competitiveness provides the reader with a full understanding of the system, presenting problems, policy options, design aspects and global insights. It aims to identify potential improvements and to draw lessons for the coming years and the future phases, assessing if the current reform is actually on track to adequately protect business competitiveness. Passionate about economic policy, the author wrote her Master's thesis on the EU ETS and competitiveness. This book develops from that project.

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.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Environmental policies may have important consequences for firms' competitiveness or profit-ability. However, the empirical literature shows that hardly any statistically significant effects on firms can be detected for the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS). We explain why there are arguably no significant competitiveness effects on firms, at least not during the first two phases of the scheme (2005-2012). We also reason why the third phase (2013-2020) is likely to reveal similar results. We show that the main explanations for this finding are a large over-allocation of emissions allowances leading to a price drop and the ability of firms to pass costs onto consumers in some sectors. Cost pass-through combined with free allocation, in turn, partly generated windfall profits. In addition, the relatively low importance of energy costs indicated by their average share in the budgets of most manufacturing industries may limit the impact of the EU ETS. Finally, small but significant stimulating effects on innovation have been found so far.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the sixth report from the EC on the competitiveness of European industry. It extends the scope of analysis from the fifth report, taking into account human capital (the set of skills which an employee acquires on the job, through training and experience, and which increase that employee's value in the marketplace) in European economic and productivity growth and productivity performance in European services. Two in every three jobs are now situated in the service sector, but the changing nature of labour demand in the EU are in skill content, as opposed to the sectoral location of employment growth. Between the years 1995-2000 employment was largely confined to jobs for medium- and highly skilled workers, for which demand is still high. Demand for such workers has outstripped supply, which seems to be a general trend across the EU. The five chapters examine productivity growth as it relates to human capital and EU services; the convergence of the EU's enterprise and competition policies and sustainable development in the EU manufacturing industry.

Download or read book Can Markets Solve Problems written by Daniel Neyland and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A provocative analysis of market-based interventions into public problems and the consequences. Market-based interventions have been used in attempts to solve numerous public problems, from education to healthcare and from climate change to privacy. Scholars have responded persuasively through critiques of neoliberalism. In Can Markets Solve Problems? Daniel Neyland, Véra Ehrenstein, and Sveta Milyaeva propose a different route forward. There is no single entity knowable as “the market,” the authors argue. Instead, they examine in detail the devices, relations, and practices that underpin these market-based interventions. Drawing on recent work in science and technology studies (STS), each chapter focuses on a different intervention and critically explores the market sensibility around which it is organized. Trade and exchange, competition, property and ownership, and investment and return all become the focus of a thorough exploration of what it means to intervene in public problems, how problems are composed, and how solutions are continually reworked. Can Markets Solve Problems? offers the first book-length STS enquiry into markets and public problems. Weaving together rich empirical descriptions and conceptual discussions, the book provides in-depth insights into the workings of these markets, their continuous evolution, and the consequences. The result is a new avenue of critical inquiry that moves between the details of specific policies and the always-emerging, collective features of this landscape of intervention.
