Title:Endogenous Standards for Subsidizing Emission Reductions
Abstract: To promote carbon abatement activities, the Australian Government offers incentives known as Australian Carbon Credit Units. The Clean Energy Regulator, an independent statutory authority in Australia, oversees the reporting and management of greenhouse gas emissions. This presentation highlights several research opportunities aimed at providing insights and recommendations to enhance the effectiveness and to provide justification of the Clean Energy Regulator's role. Additionally, it proposes a mechanism design model to explore the characteristics of government-oriented and proponent-led standards for subsidizing emission reduction projects.
