(CICERO Working Paper;2000:10, Working paper, 2000)The consequences of the Kyoto Protocol for the fossil fuel markets depend on which policy instruments that are used in order to reach the emission targets. This paper uses a numerical model to assess the significance of ... -
The merits of non-tradable quotas as a domestic policy instrument to prevent firm closure
(CICERO Working Paper;2001:06, Working paper, 2001)There is a concern in many countries that a domestic tradable quota system for greenhouse gases, where all emitters must pay for their quotas, may lead to closures of emissions-intensive industrial companies. Allocating ... -
