Beggar thy neighbor? On the competitiveness and welfare impacts of the EU's proposed carbon border adjustment mechanism

Jiarui Zhong et al.

Summary: This paper estimates the competitiveness and welfare impacts of the EU carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) using a refined multi-regional IO approach. The study finds that the implementation of CBAM will lead to a redistribution of competitiveness among countries and regions, with China, Russia, and India bearing the most burden.

Pitfalls of the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism

Byeongho Lim et al.

Summary: The EU's plan for the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism has raised concerns about legal issues and trade disputes, with the international community viewing it as a trade barrier. Despite its aim to combat climate change, the CBAM scheme is considered too costly for the world economy.

A multi-model analysis of long-term emissions and warming implications of current mitigation efforts

Ida Sognnaes et al.

Summary: Using seven integrated assessment models, this study projects global energy CO2 emissions trajectories based on near-term mitigation efforts and assumptions on post-2030 efforts. Although a wide range of emissions scenarios is found for 2050, most of them result in median warming of less than 3 degrees C by 2100. However, even the most optimistic scenario is insufficient to limit global warming to 2 degrees C. The study also highlights the importance of diverse model intercomparisons and the exaggeration of carbon capture and storage use in representing policy with economy-wide carbon prices.

Do rebound effects matter for Switzerland? Assessing the effectiveness of industrial energy efficiency improvements

Michel Zimmermann et al.

Summary: This paper examines the impact of increasing energy efficiency on reducing industrial energy consumption and environmental impacts, finding that rebound effects are influenced by the substitutability of energy and capital. The simulations show that a more nuanced representation of capital reduces rebound effects, but overall rebound effects in Switzerland remain substantial both on a national and industrial level.

Pulling up the carbon ladder? Decarbonization, dependence, and third-country risks from the European carbon border adjustment mechanism

Laima Eicke et al.

Summary: The EU's introduction of the carbon border adjustment mechanism (CBAM) within the European Green Deal has sparked debates on its effectiveness for climate action, adherence to WTO regulations, and potential trade wars with China and the US. The implications of the EU CBAM for affected countries, especially in the Global South, may have been underestimated, with unevenly distributed impacts across the globe. Most countries at relatively high risk are located in Africa, highlighting the need for differentiated policy responses based on individual countries' vulnerabilities.

Challenges in the harmonisation of global integrated assessment models: A comprehensive methodology to reduce model response heterogeneity

Sara Giarola et al.

Summary: Harmonisation plays a crucial role in facilitating consistent interpretation of integrated assessment model outcomes and reducing model variance, thus supporting policy decision-making for climate economic policies. However, defining a comprehensive harmonisation methodology for integrated assessment modelling remains a challenge for the scientific community. This paper proposes a framework with indispensable steps and recommendations to reduce model variance, showcasing the potential benefits through a decomposition analysis of six integrated assessment models. The approach presented offers a powerful diagnostic tool to assess and improve the quality of harmonisation.

Higher cost of finance exacerbates a climate investment trap in developing economies

Nadia Ameli et al.

Summary: Access to low cost finance is crucial for the transition to green energy in developing economies, but the uneven distribution of capital costs in different regions poses a challenge. Policy interventions that reduce capital costs can accelerate the achievement of net-zero emissions targets in Africa.

Trade in Carbon and Carbon Tariffs

Christoph Bohringer et al.

Summary: This study investigates the role and effectiveness of carbon tariffs, showing that they are more effective in combating leakage when carbon trade increases, but have limited potential to improve the cost-effectiveness of global unilateral emission pricing. Additionally, carbon tariffs have the potential to shift the economic burden of emission reductions from developed regions to developing regions, but this potential has decreased after the financial crisis.

Border carbon adjustments and industrial competitiveness in a European Green Deal

Stuart Evans et al.

Summary: This paper discusses the European Union's consideration of introducing a Border Carbon Adjustment as part of the European Green Deal, highlighting the potential weakening of EU producers' competitiveness in foreign markets by replacing free allocation with an import-only BCA. It also emphasizes the importance of free allocation in safeguarding the overall industrial competitiveness of exported products.
