Tradable emission permits

Abstract:The authors explore the possibilities of using incentive-based environmental regulations than so-called command-and-control regulations such as emission limits or technology standards. The authors find that an emission charge and a tradable emission permit system in which the permits are auctioned have more or less the same characteristics. The main advantage of a tradable emission permit system is that the effect is known. The choice of regulation is a political decision and it does not seem likely an environmental charge or a tradable emission permit system would be implementedwithout consideration of the costs of the regulation. Revenue-neutral charges or gratis distribution of permits would, for this reason, be realistic choices of regulations.
