• Alternative designs for tariffs on embodied carbon. A global cost-effectiveness analysis 

      Böhringer, Christoph; Bye, Brita; Fæhn, Taran; Rosendahl, Knut Einar (Discussion Papers;682, Working paper, 2012)
      In the absence of effective world-wide cooperation to curb global warming, import tariffs on embodied carbon have been proposed as a potential supplement to unilateral emissions pricing. We systematically consider alternative ...
    • Carbon leakage from the clean development mechanism 

      Rosendahl, Knut Einar; Strand, Jon (Discussion Papers;591, Working paper, 2009)
      The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is an offset mechanism designed to reduce the overall cost of implementing a given target for greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in industrialized Annex B countries of the Kyoto Protocol, ...
    • The effects of transport regulation on the oil market : does market power matter? 

      Kverndokk, Snorre; Rosendahl, Knut Einar (Discussion papers;No. 629, Working paper, 2010)
      Abstract: Popular instruments to regulate consumption of oil in the transport sector include fuel taxes, biofuel requirements, and fuel efficiency. Their impacts on oil consumption and price vary. One important factor is ...
    • Emission pricing and CO2 compensation in the EU. The optimal compensation to the power-intensive and trade-exposed industries for increased electricity prices 

      Kaushal, Kevin R.; Lindholt, Lars; Yonezawa, Hidemichi (Discussion Paper;No. 1008, Working paper, 2023-10-26)
      Unilateral CO2 emission reduction can lead to carbon leakage, such as relocation of power-intensive and trade-exposed industries. In the EU emission trading system, these industries are also subjected to higher cost of ...
    • Optimal Climate Policy in the Presence of Another Country's Climate Policy 

      Kaushal, Kevin R. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-03-25)
      The allowances in an emission trading system (ETS) are commonly allocated for free to the emission-intensive and trade-exposed sector, e.g., in the form of output-based allocation (OBA). Recently an approach combining OBA ...
    • Smart hedging against carbon leakage 

      Böhringer, Christoph; Rosendahl, Knut Einar; Storrøsten, Halvor Briseid (Discussion papers;No.822, Working paper, 2015-10)
      Unilateral climate policy induces carbon leakage through the relocation of emission-intensive and trade-exposed industries to regions with no or more lenient emission regulation. Both analytical and numerical studies suggest ...
    • Targeted carbon tariffs: Carbon leakage and welfare effects 

      Böhringer, Christoph; Bye, Brita; Fæhn, Taran; Rosendahl, Knut Einar (Discussion papers;805, Working paper, 2015-03)
      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 ...
    • Taxing Consumption to Mitigate Carbon Leakage 

      Kaushal, Kevin R.; Rosendahl, Knut Einar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      Unilateral actions to reduce CO2 emissions could lead to carbon leakage such as relocation of emission-intensive and trade-exposed industries (EITE). To mitigate such leakage, countries often supplement an emissions trading ...
