Carbon pricing very effectively encourages the shift of production and consumption choices towards low and zero carbon options that is required to limit climate change. Are countries using this tool to its full potential? This report measures the pricing of CO2-emissions from energy use in 44 OECD and G20 countries, covering around 80% of world emissions.

Accelerating the transition to net zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is urgently required to contain the risks of climate change. As countries seek to reduce GHG emissions, they can employ or reform a wide range of policy instruments. This report tracks how explicit carbon prices, energy taxes and subsidies have evolved between 2018 and 2021.

This open access book evaluates, from an economic perspective, various measures introduced in Japan to prevent climate change. Although various countries have implemented such policies in response to the pressing issue of climate change, the effectiveness of those programs has not been sufficiently compared. In particular, policy evaluations in the Asian region are far behind those in North America and Europe due to data limitations and political reasons. The first part of the book summarizes measures in different sectors in Japan to prevent climate change, such as emissions trading and carbon tax, and assesses their impact. The second part shows how those policies have changed the behavior of firms and households. In addition, it presents macro-economic simulations that consider the potential of renewable energy. Lastly, based on these comprehensive assessments, it compares the effectiveness of measures to prevent climate change in Japan and Western countries. Providing valuable insights, this book will appeal to both academic researchers and policymakers seeking cost-effective measures against climate change.

Pricing Greenhouse Gas Emissions 2024: Gearing Up to Bring Emissions Down tracks how explicit carbon pricing instruments as well as specific taxes and subsidies on energy use have evolved between 2021 and 2023 across 79 countries, covering approximately 82% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This report focuses on emissions trading systems, carbon taxes, fuel and electricity excise taxes, as well as subsidies that lower prices on emissions or energy products. The tax rates for this edition reflect rates applicable on 1 April 2023 while emissions trading schemes implemented throughout 2023 are also included.

Switzerland has proved resilient through the pandemic, geopolitical turmoil and reverberations in energy markets. Unemployment and inflation are low, and living standards are among the highest in the OECD. This is reinforced by a dynamic market-based economy, highly skilled workforce and prudent macroeconomic policies. Yet, slowing growth amid continued price pressures pose challenges. A tight monetary policy is necessary to ensure that inflation remains durably within the central bank’s target range. Although a broadly neutral fiscal stance is warranted in the short term, longer-term fiscal pressures call for structural reform to counter rising cost of ageing and to support the green transition.

La lotta al cambiamento climatico è un bene pubblico globale e la COP 26 è un appuntamento chiave per affrontarlo. Tuttavia, mentre l'accordo sul clima che sarà negoziato nella COP 26 dovrà essere globale, la sua attuazione dovrà essere locale poiché sarà guidata da ogni singolo Stato firmatario. In questo contesto, un Global Carbon Price (GCP) ha le qualità di una soluzione win-win. All'interno del Technical WG dell'UN High Level Dialogue on Energy 2021, questo paper, dopo aver esaminato lo stato dell'arte della letteratura e valutato i risultati della ricerca empirica, analizza la relazione tra carbon pricing, sussidi e decarbonizzazione. Porta alla luce la proposta di un GCP che includa diversi strumenti economici -ETS, carbon tax, accise- alimentando un Fair Transition Fund per lo sviluppo inclusivo, come meccanismo flessibile, efficace e sostenibile per ridurre le emissioni globali di CO2.
