Emissions-weighted carbon price: sources and methods

Blog Article

Abstract This note describes the sources and methods used to calculate the emissions-weighted carbon price (ECP), the average price applied to CO2 emissions across all sources of emissions within a Acrylic Plant Marker territorial jurisdiction by all carbon pricing mechanisms in force.It provides a transparent summary of the stringency of carbon pricing mechanisms in force within Billy Royal Show Saddle a given jurisdiction and allows for a straightforward comparison of that stringency across jurisdictions.It also describes the methodology behind two closely connected calculations: (i) sector-level carbon prices (by IPCC categories of emissions by sources and by categories of economic activity, respectively), (ii) industry- and country-level carbon costs.
