Carbon Tax or Carbon Permits: The Impact on Generators’ Risks (2008, unknown): “A technology-neutral allocation (which should even include giving away permits to nuclear stations) would maximize the scheme’s impact on the choice of technology (Neuhoff et al. 2006).”
The innovation impact of the EU Emission Trading System — Findings of company case studies in the German power sector (2011, background): “For example, two innovation-relevant aspects of the EU ETS which have been analyzed are the distortionary incentives arising from the treatment of new entrants and closures and the short trading phases (Ahman et al., 2007; Ellermann, 2008; Neuhoff et al., 2006).”
EU emissions trading and the cement sector: a spatial competition analysis (2008, background): “If the allocation were made on the basis of current (or very recent) production, the free allowances would effectively be ‘earned’ by producing clinker29 in accordance with an appropriate technology benchmark (Neuhoff et al., 2006).”
Pass-Through of CO2 Emission Costs to Hourly Electricity Prices in Germany (2016, background): “There has been a lengthy policy debate about the merits of free allowance allocation to the industries included by the EU ETS, and a series of economic papers discuss this issue from various perspectives (Grubb and Neuhoff, 2006; Hepburn et al., 2006; Neuhoff et al., 2006).”
EU Emission Allowances and the Stock Market: Evidence from the Electricity Industry (2009, background): “According to Neuhoff et al. (2006), due to the sequential allocation process of EU ETS, decisions in the power sector are distorted.”
Abatement and Allocation in the Pilot Phase of the EU ETS (2009, background): “The literature on various aspects of the EU ETS is growing with much attention being paid to allocation issues (Ellerman and Buchner 2007; Neuhoff et al. 2006; Ahman et al. 2007),”
