    • Incentives and quota prices in an emission trading scheme with updating 

      Rosendahl, Knut Einar (Discussion Papers;No. 495, Working paper, 2007)

      Rosendahl, Knut Einar; Storrøsten, Halvor Briseid (Discussion Papers;644, Working paper, 2011)
      Allocation of emission allowances may affect firms' incentives to invest in clean technologies. In this paper we show that so-called output-based allocation tends to stimulate such investments as long as individual firms ...

      Golombek, Rolf; Kittelsen, Sverre A.C.; Rosendahl, Knut Einar (Discussion Papers;No. 661, Working paper, 2011)
      Abstract: We analyze how different ways of allocating emission quotas may influence the electricity market. Using a large-scale numerical model of the Western European energy market, we show that different allocation ...

      Abstract: We consider an international emissions trading scheme with partial sectoral and regional coverage. Sectoral and regional expansion of the trading scheme is beneficial in aggregate, but not necessarily for ...
    • Strategic partitioning of emissions allowances : under the EU Emission Trading Scheme 

      Böhringer, Christoph; Rosendahl, Knut Einar (Discussion Papers;No. 538, Working paper, 2008)
      Abstract: The EU Emission Trading Scheme (ETS) is breaking new ground in the experience with emission trading regimes across multiple jurisdictions. Since the EU ETS covers only some industries, it implies a hybrid emission ...
