Entrevue avec l'organisateur de la conférence Paul Thomassin
Carbon and Emissions Trading Using Economic Experiments to Investigate Institutional Design
The workshop brings together five experts in the field of emissions trading to illustrate their research on how the design of the emissions trading institution can impact individual and firm decision making behaviour and the efficiency of the market mechanism.
The presenters at the workshop include Skander Ben Abdallah who will provide an overview of carbon emission trading systems in the EU and North America. Robert Godby has investigated the impact of institutional rules, such as the banking of credits, on firm decision behaviour. Tim Cason will speak on the impact of regional trading across countries, states and
The presenters at the workshop include Skander Ben Abdallah who will provide an overview of carbon emission trading systems in the EU and North America. Robert Godby has investigated the impact of institutional rules, such as the banking of credits, on firm decision behaviour. Tim Cason will speak on the impact of regional trading across countries, states and
provinces on firm decision making and the efficiency of market performance. Behaviour aspects of decision making in emission trading institutions are an important area of investigation in emissions trading institutions. Jim Engle-Warnick, CIRANO V.P. and Director of the Experimental Lab, will speak on the impact of behavioural issues, such as risk, uncertainty and ambiguity, on emissions trading behaviour. Finally, John Stranlund has used the laboratory to investigate enforcement issues with emissions trading institutions.
