This paper examines the efficiency and distributional impacts of introducing a price floor in an emissions trading system (ETS) when environmental regulation is partitioned. We theoretically characterize the conditions under which a price floor enhances welfare. Using a multi-country...

This book presents a new computational approach to solving large-scale Auerbach-Kotlikoff Overlapping Generations (OLG) models in a complementarity format. Unlike with integrated solution methods, the proposed decomposition algorithm allows for the solution of multi-regional and multi-sectoral...
