International offset certificates trade at lower prices than European Union Allowances (EUAs), although they are substitutes within the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) for CO2. Firms therefore had a strong incentive to use the cheaper certificates. However, a considerable number of firms did not use their allowed offset quota and, by doing so, seemingly forwent profits. While most of the literature ...

Als globales Problem ist der Klimawandel eine der größten Herausforderungen der heutigen Zeit und muss im Kontext einer zunehmenden Globalisierung verstanden werden. Die vorliegende Dissertation untersucht die Zusammenhänge zwischen internationalem Handel und Klimapolitik und leistet einen Beitrag zum wissenschaftlichen Diskurs, indem sie diese aus zwei unterschiedlichen Perspektiven betrachtet: zum ...

Um die energie- und klimapolitischen Ziele der Bundesregierung zu erreichen, müssen im Bereich der Raumwärme mittel- und langfristig große Energieeinsparungen erzielt werden. Vor diesem Hintergrund erhebt das DIW Berlin gemeinsam mit der ista Deutschland GmbH jährlich den sogenannten Wärmemonitor, der auf einem umfangreichen Datenbestand von jährlichen Heizenergieabrechnungen von Mehrfamilienhäusern ...

The energy efficiency of the residential housing stock plays a key role in strategies to mitigate climate change and global warming. In this context, it is frequently argued that private investment and the quality of thermal upgrades are too low in the light of the challenges faced and the potential energy cost savings. While many authors address the potential barriers for investors to increase energy ...

We analyze the impacts of future scenarios of electric vehicles (EVs) on the German power system, drawing on different assumptions on the charging mode. We find that the impact on the load duration curve strongly differs between charging modes. In a fully user-driven mode, charging largely occurs during daytime and in the evening, when power demand is already high. User-driven charging may thus have ...

Since 2007, the European cement and steel sectors have been characterized by substantial surplus production capacity. Hence re-investment in primary production of many materials remains limited and endangers the longer-term economic viability of many plants. Opportunities for innovation and modernization could overcome these challenges. They are linked to new demands for more efficient and lower-carbon ...

Climate protection is a global challenge that all countries have a common but differentiated responsibility to address. However, not all governments are willing to commit to targets of equal stringency, and individual countries may put different emphases on carbon pricing in their policy mix. Carbon prices may thus continue to differ over longer time horizons. Therefore, measures to protect production ...

DIW Roundup 72 / 2015
The EU’s Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) is a regional cap-and-trade program in a world with no binding international climate agreement. This climate regulation may induce a relocation of production away from Europe, with potentially negative consequences for the European economy. This relocation could lead to carbon leakage, i.e. a shift of greenhouse gas emissions from Europe into regions with ...
