This paper proposes a joint simulation framework for coupled electricity and carbon trading in integrated energy systems under carbon neutrality. The framework models interactions between the two markets and evaluates impacts on system oper…

Colmer J.

This paper provides firm-level evidence on the effectiveness of the EU Emissions Trading System in reducing emissions. It shows that carbon pricing causally mitigates climate change, supporting the use of market-based mechanisms.

Jin Y.

This paper discusses the importance of allowance allocation in China's carbon emissions trading system (ETS). It analyzes how allocation methods affect market efficiency and emission reduction outcomes, offering implications for policy desi…

Jia Z.

This paper analyzes the regressive effects of China's emissions trading scheme (ETS) on inequality through residential carbon footprints. It provides empirical evidence that lower-income households bear a disproportionate burden, offering i…

Makridou G.

This paper empirically examines how participation in the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) affects corporate financial performance, focusing on profitability and market valuation.

Song Y.

This study examines how local fiscal pressure affects the environmental and economic outcomes of emission trading schemes (ETS). Findings suggest that higher fiscal pressure may reduce environmental effectiveness but enhance economic benefi…

Zhang K.

This paper analyzes the economy-wide impacts of the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) on climate mitigation. It finds that CBAM can reduce carbon leakage and encourage global emission reductions, but potential trade frictions and…

Chai J.

This paper examines how scenario-based carbon pricing policies affect China's dual climate goals of emission reduction and climate mitigation. It analyzes the role of policy design in achieving these targets and provides insights into effec…

Tian H.

This paper empirically examines the impact of China's carbon emission trading policies on firms' green technology innovation using listed company data. It finds evidence that carbon markets stimulate green innovation.

Zhu J.

This paper empirically analyzes the impact of China's emissions trading scheme (ETS) on low-carbon innovation, examining whether ETS induces patent filings and technological development. It provides evidence on the effectiveness of carbon p…

Mandaroux R.

This paper proposes an evaluation framework for integrating distributed ledger technology (DLT) into the European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS). It analyzes potential benefits in transparency, operational efficiency, and fraud red…

Zeng Y.

This paper analyzes indirect double regulation in the linking of EU and China carbon emission trading schemes (ETS), focusing on coal-fired power generation. It highlights regulatory overlap and inefficiency due to poor coordination, sugges…

Kukah A.S.K.

This paper provides a comprehensive review of major global carbon emissions trading schemes, analyzing their design, implementation, and performance. It also discusses future directions for ETS and their role in climate change mitigation.

Wen S.

This paper compares carbon tax, emissions trading, and resource tax as policy instruments for low-carbon transitions. It analyzes their economic efficiency, feasibility, and distributional effects, offering insights into optimal policy desi…

Shah A.

This paper reviews China's environmental tax system and argues for the introduction of a carbon tax. It emphasizes the importance of tax reform for emission reduction targets and discusses economic impacts and feasibility.

This paper systematically explores barriers to the adoption and implementation of carbon emission trading (ETS). It categorizes barriers into regulatory, economic, organizational, and technical dimensions, highlighting challenges for ETS di…

Lizhi Cui, Qianhui Shi

This paper constructs a system dynamics model coupling carbon tax, carbon emission trading (CET), and tradable green certificate (TGC) markets in China. It finds that a carbon tax of 50 CNY/ton significantly boosts renewable investment, and…

Hongbo Liu, Xinyong Du, Chen Wu

This paper empirically analyzes the asymmetric growth effects of the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). It suggests that the impact varies by countries' carbon price levels, highlighting the need for careful policy design to ba…

Yuzhe Li, Gaiping Sun, Deting Shen +1

This paper proposes a hybrid game-based optimal operation model for a multi-energy prosumer alliance under coupled carbon emission trading (CET) and green certificate trading (GCT) markets. An Electricity Balance Service Provider (EBSP) coo…
