On the regional distribution of mitigation costs in a global cap-and-trade regime
This paper analyzes the regional distribution of climate change mitigation costs in
a global cap-and-trade regime. Four stylized burden-sharing rules are considered, ranging
from GDP-based permit allocations to schemes that foresee a long-term convergence of percapita
emission permits. The comparison of results from three structurally different hybrid,
integrated energy-economy models allows us to derive robust insights as well as identify
sources of uncertainty with respect to the regional distribution of the costs of climate change
mitigation. We find that regional costs of climate change mitigation may deviate substantially
from the global mean. For all models, the mitigation cost average of the four scenarios
is higher for China than for the other macro-regions considered. Furthermore, China suffers
above-world-average mitigation costs for most burden-sharing rules in the long-term. A
decomposition of mitigation costs into (a) primary (domestic) abatement costs and (b) permit
trade effects, reveals that the large uncertainty about the future development of carbon prices
results in substantial uncertainties about the financial transfers associated with carbon trade
for a given allocation scheme. This variation also implies large uncertainty about the
regional distribution of climate policy costs
