This book was released on 1999 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In spring 1998, the National Round Table on the Environment & the Economy initiated a project to examine possible designs for a domestic emissions trading program for greenhouse gases (GHG). This report describes the five trading program designs developed and the results of their evaluation. The options evaluated are: voluntary credit trading (VCT), in which some emission sources voluntarily create emission reduction credits by documenting impacts of specific emission reduction or sequestration measures they have implemented, and other entities voluntarily purchase some of the credits; mandatory performance standards such as GHG per unit of output for large emitters and performance standards for equipment & buildings used by small emitters, emission reduction credits being created by entities that exceed the standard and used by other entities to help comply with the standards; capping the carbon content of fossil fuels & other GHG emissions, with allowances equal to carbon content held by fossil fuel producers & users & importers, and letting those with excess allowances sell them to those that do not have enough; downstream GHG emissions allowance trading with VCT, excluding transportation; and downstream GHG emissions allowance trading with VCT and upstream carbon content trading for transportation fuels. The appendix includes a report on possible designs for a domestic emissions trading program and descriptions of selected existing emissions trading programs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carbon markets are developing and expanding around the world, but how and to what extent is their design shaped by learning and interaction between them? How do these markets function and what is the role of design? Carrying out a ground-breaking analysis of their design and diffusion, this book covers all the major carbon market systems and processes around the world: the EU, RGGI, California, Tokyo, New Zealand, Australia, China, South Korea and Kazakhstan. It offers a systematic, in-depth discussion and comparison of the key design features in these systems with expert contributors exploring how, and to what extent, these features have been shaped by central policy diffusion mechanisms and domestic politics. By focussing on the specific design features of the instruments used, this volume makes important contributions to diffusion theory, highlighting how ETS diffusion processes more often have resulted in design divergence than convergence, and discussing the implications of this finding for the vision of linked systems in the post-Paris era. It will be of significant interest to a broad audience interested in the emergence, evolution, functioning and interaction of carbon markets.

This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asia and the Pacific has achieved rapid economic expansion in the recent years and has become a major source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. With more than half of the world’s population and high rates of economic growth, the region is especially vulnerable to the effects of climate change and therefore must play its part in cutting GHG emissions. The Paris Agreement adopted last December 2015 at the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change COP21 aims to restrict global warming to well below 2°C above preindustrial levels and to pursue efforts to reach 1.5°C---which is especially relevant to Asia and the Pacific region given its vulnerability. This knowledge product highlights how robust policies on emissions trading systems (ETS) can be important tools in reducing GHG emissions in a cost-effective manner, as well as supporting the mobilization of finance together with deployment of innovative technologies. There are currently 17 ETSs in place in four continents and account for nearly 40% of global gross domestic product. In Asia and the Pacific region, there are 11 systems operating, with more being planned. The growing wealth of experience on ETSs can be valuable to support DMCs that are planning and designing new systems of their own. This knowledge product summarizes some of the most significant learning experiences to date and discusses some of the solutions to alleviate challenges that have been faced. It also examines the possibilities for future linked carbon markets in the region.

Download or read book Linking Certificate Trading Schemes for Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency written by Gudrun Senk and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2010-02 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2008 in the subject Environmental Sciences, grade: 1, University of Applied Sciences Burgenland (Nachhaltige Energiesysteme), language: English, abstract: Climate Change is real, and the impacts on ecology, economy and human lifestyle are expected to be tremendous. In order to effectively but also cost efficiently combat climate change, market based instruments are being used in environmental policy. Certificate schemes have been and are being created for trading of greenhouse gas reductions (Grey Certificates), renewable energy (Green Certificates) and energy efficiency (White Certificates). So far, Europe is the frontrunner in implementing especially Greenhouse Gas emission trading schemes. However, as climate change is a global problem, similar markets should be established all over the world and ideally be linked in order to achieve economic optimal solutions. This thesis describes characteristics of the different instruments and trading schemes (Grey, Green and White Certificates) and identifies major design parameters of the systems with the focus on compatibility and potential for establishing links between schemes of the same type or among the certificate types. Implications of establishing links, which can be planned and wanted but also conflicting with other goals, are discussed. As greenhouse gas emissions trading schemes are the most developed and experienced trading schemes in climate change policy, the focus of this work lies on the analysis of the different Greenhouse Gas emission trading schemes (ETS). For the compatibility analysis of ETS, the EU ETS is chosen as reference system. An outlook for near-term linking options and a summary conclude the analysis based on the findings of the work. As more and more environmental policies and instruments emerge around the world due to rising awareness for the problem of climate change, this thesis gives an overview but can not cover all different certificate systems in place

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inclusion in the Kyoto Protocol, as one of three market-based mechanisms to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, an international emissions trading system has attracted widespread interest. This guide provides information for the non-specialist on the concept of emissions trading, including a simple theoretical model of an emissions trading system, with an emphasis on its economic advantages in comparison to more conventional forms of regulation. It also explores different system designs and their environmental aims, examples of existing systems with their performance to date, and how future systems may develop.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canada's domestic Offset System is designed to encourage cost-effective domestic reductions or removals of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in activities that are not covered by the federal GHG regulations. Through the System, businesses & organizations will be able to earn offset credits when they implement projects that result in incremental emission reductions or removals beyond what they would have done under normal activities. Once created, verified offset credits can be sold to anyone that is required to reduce its GHG emissions. The first part of this report is an overview of the Offset System, with information on its policy context, key principles, rules, stages of credit creation, specific design elements, and further steps in System development. The second part is a technical background document that provides the information required by potential offset project proponents & others evaluating the proposed design of the Offset System for large projects. It outlines the process for creation of offset credits, the eligibility criteria for offset projects & their reductions or removals, requirements for quantification & verification of credits, and specific requirements for carbon sink projects and projects involving indirect emission reductions in the electricity sector. Includes glossary.
