CO2-intensive power generation and REDD-based emission offsets with a benefit-sharing mechanism
We propose and explore financial instruments supporting programs for reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (FI-REDD). Within a microeconomic framework we model interactions between an electricity producer (EP), electricity consumer (EC), and forest owner (FO). To keep their profit at a maximum, the EP responds to increasing CO2 prices by adjusting electricity quantities g...
متن کاملA bottom-up approach to estimating cost elements of REDD+ pilot projects in Tanzania
BACKGROUND Several previous global REDD+ cost studies have been conducted, demonstrating that payments for maintaining forest carbon stocks have significant potential to be a cost-effective mechanism for climate change mitigation. These studies have mostly followed highly aggregated top-down approaches without estimating the full range of REDD+ costs elements, thus underestimating the actual co...
متن کاملFair pricing of REDD-based emission offsets under risk preferences and benefit sharing
We consider risk-aware forest owners and electricity producers evaluating the Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation (REDD)-based offsets with a benefitsharing mechanisms under uncertain CO2 prices. For a range of CO2 prices and respective risks perceived by the forest owner (seller) and electricity producer (buyer), we apply a model of fair (indifference) pricing. Parties’ risk p...

متن کاملOpportunity Costs of Carbon Emissions Stemming from Changes in Land Use
The REDD (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation) mechanism allows carbon sinks to be used as carbon credits in order to offset emissions from other sources. However, this practice has raised a number of issues relating to financial incentives. In this study, we develop a spatially explicit model for predicting carbon emissions from deforestation that meet baseline levels ...
