“…There has been considerable discussion on the latter particularly on the legal aspects (e.g. Ismer & Neuhoff, 2007;Lockwood & Whalley, 2010;Holzer, 2010;Tamiotti, 2011;Zhang, 2010;Pauwelyn, 2007) and trade impacts (e.g. Monjon & Quirion, 2011;Dong & Whalley, 2010;Gros & Egenhofer, 2011;Fischer & Fox, 2009).…”

Centre for Climate Change Economics and Policy Working Paper No. 134 Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment Working Paper No. 113 The Centre for Climate Change Economics and Policy (CCCEP) was established by the University of Leeds and the London School of Economics and Political Science in 2008 to advance public and private action on climate change through innovative, rigorous research. The Centre is funded by the UK Economic and Social Research Council and has five inter-linked research programmes: 1. Developing climate science and economics 2. Climate change governance for a new global deal 3. Adaptation to climate change and human development 4. Governments, markets and climate change mitigation 5. The Munich Re Programme-Evaluating the economics of climate risks and opportunities in the insurance sector More information about the Centre for Climate Change Economics and Policy can be found at: http://www.cccep.ac.uk. The Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment was established by the London School of Economics and Political Science in 2008 to bring together international expertise on economics, finance, geography, the environment, international development and political economy to create a worldleading centre for policy-relevant research and training in climate change and the environment. The Institute is funded by the Grantham Foundation for the Protection of the Environment and the Global Green Growth Institute, and has five research programmes: 1. Global response strategies 2. Green growth 3. Practical aspects of climate policy 4. Adaptation and development 5. Resource security More information about the Grantham Research Institute on Climate Change and the Environment can be found at: http://www.lse.ac.uk/grantham.

“…This tax level was in fact the tax rate proposed, but not approved, for non-emission trade sectors by the European Commission to reform the European Energy Tax Directive (European Commission, 2011; Rocchi et al, 2014). 10 As the literature suggests, we also assume that the EU exempt their exports from the domestic carbon taxation to avoid the competitive disadvantage of domestic firms in the world market (Holzer, 2010). Likewise we presume that non-EU countries are not implementing any emissions reductUS the carbon field' we simulate a hypothetical CBT that the EU would apply on products imported from non-EU countries.…”

“…We take the EU as a case study; we assume that the EU applies a BCA on imports in the form of a tax to compensate a European CO2 tax and, at the same time, that the EU exempts its exports from the domestic carbon tax (Holzer, 2010). Moreover, unlike the existing literature, the taxes and the BCA are applied at a product level and not at a sector level.…”

“…Obviously, measuring the contents of untaxed carbon in each imported product would be extremely difficult, but the number of carbon-intensive goods is not that large, so limiting the adjustments to these goods would yield a feasible and satisfactory solution (Goulder 1992). This measure, however, looks very similar to protectionist measures that are banned by WTO rules, which suggests that it must be drafted very carefully (Holzer 2010). …”
