Abstract: | It is a well known result that distributional constraints can lead to an imperfectly competitive permit market where the emission
target is no longer met at least cost. In this paper, we suggest an allocation rule for tradable permits which can handle
this problem. If the permit allocation is dependent on the market price for permits, this allocation rule can achieve both
cost effectiveness and meet specific requirements for cost distribution across agents. |
