• CASE II model • Sector selection • Data • Results • Linkage • Conclusion

Review of CASE II • Purpose

– comparing the performance of the two alternatives—free allocation and border adjustment—to limit carbon leakage and mitigate production loss during the third period of EU ETS

• Characteristic – represent industries at a disaggregated level – quantitatively analyze the impact of different “anti-leakage” options on

the activity of the different industries • Static and partial equilibrium model, covering four sectors

– Cement, Aluminums, Steel and Electricity (changeable) – two regions: EU27 and the rest of world (changeable)

• Four sectors are linked through the 𝐶𝐶2market, 𝐶𝐶2 price clears the market.

• Two regions are linked through international trade

Sector coverage

• Define three indicators to evaluate the influence of ETS in industries

• The three indicators are based on the following variables of industry – Direct & indirect emissions – Embodied emission intensive (including and without

imports) – Imports & exports and domestic production amount

9

Methodology • Carbon Cost per Unit of Industrial Value Added

• Trade intensity

• Price incremental ratio

where represents the CO2 price, and direct and indirect CO2 emissions from

industry i, and the added value of industry i.

In China, the electricity price is subject to the control of the Government, rather than the

market. Therefore, only considers the intensity of direct CO2 emissions in industry i, and

represents Leontief reverse matrix.

Data source and parameters

• Data source: National Bureau of Statistics of China – 2007 China energy balance table – 2007 China input-output table – Fuel emission factors – Sector splitting

• Parameters – Carbon price: 50 yuan (S1) & 100 yuan (S2)/ton 𝐶𝐶2 – Emission per KWh generation: 0.85Kg-𝐶𝐶2/KWh

11

Carbon Cost per Value Added • Cost rising significant in

Energy/emission intensive sectors

• Given a baseline of a 2% increase in MVAS, the accumulated industrial value added in relation to GDP approaches 15.8%

Scenarios: Allocation & Border Adjustment BAU No climate policy, established on the base of growing GDA and changing technical coefficients Grandfathering Auction AUCTION: 100% auction without border adjustment 100% auction with border adjustment in every sector

– FULL BA: both exports and imports, both direct and indirect emission. Export adjustment is refer to China average specific emission for direct and average specific electricity consumption for indirect. Import adjustment is refer to the rest of world level.

– Chn_AV_BA: same as FULL BA except that import adjustment is refer to China level

– IMPORT_DIRECT_BA: only consider import and direct emission, others the same as FULL BA

– Chn_IMPORT_DIRECT: only consider import and direct emission, import adjustment is refer to China level

Output-based OB_full: free allocation base on output in every sector

Calibration and Simulation • To facilitate follow-up study in the integration of Chinese and

Japanese carbon markets, the time dimension and parameters in the CASE II model are set similar between two countries. Through parameter calibration based on the 2005 statistics, the consumer preference coefficient and unit transportation cost can be obtained, and assumed to be constant in the study interval (2020).

• To accomplish the target of a carbon intensity reduction by 40%-45%, compared with literature, the total CO2 emissions must fall by 27% over the BAU scenario in the power, cement, steel and basic chemical raw materials manufacturing sectors.

15

CO2 Price

• The price is the highest in the OBA scenario • No much changes among other scenarios • Similar between China and Japan

16

CO2 emissions by sector

• As far as products in domestic sales are considered, in the OBA scenario, the cement sector, the highest

• In the FULL BA and Chn_AV_BA scenarios, the total CO2 emissions of exports have risen in the cement, steel and basic chemical raw materials manufacturing sectors, mainly due to export subsidies that ensure industrial competitiveness in the international market.

17

Carbon Leakage

• The carbon leakage ratio is defined as the ratio of CO2 emission growths in the RoW region to the CO2 emission reductions in China, where the growth or reduction is relative to the emissions in the BAU scenario

• China shows a lower carbon leakage ratio than Japan, due to the higher carbon intensity and lower trade intensity in these sectors in China than in Japan.

CO2 Price

• The price is the highest in the OBA scenario • No much changes among other scenarios • Similar between China and Japan

20

CO2 Price

• Little influence on China is shown, but the CO2 price in Japan is effectively reduced. • The price in Japan decreases maximum by 43% under FULL BA scenario , from USD

32.21/t decrease to USD 18.36/t, approximately 30% decrease under other scenarios (except OBA)

• The CO2 price rises slightly by less than 2.5% in China • It can be attributed to the much limited quota available in Japanese ETS market. In the

scope of this report, the quota liquidity in Chinese ETS market reaches 3.47 billion tons, while only 210 million tons in Japan. 21

Conclusions • This study shows that the introduction of the ETS will have significant impacts

on China's economic sectors. • According to the input-output analysis, given the same carbon price level, the

severely affected MVAS in China is more than ten times that of developed countries - the EU, Japan and Germany.

• The partial equilibrium framework – CASE II model is established as a tool for economic analysis to measure the equilibrium impact of CO2 price and industrial competitiveness and carbon leakage at the sectoral level.

• The study also explores the ETS market linkage between China and Japan. • It is found that in the CASE II model, an integrated carbon market relative to a

separate one is effective in reducing the CO2 price and brings incremental benefits to both Chinese the Japanese society.

• Design matters, The benefit of linking depends on how parties consider the initial allocation of allowance and border adjustment;

• The distribution of linking benefit among markets depends on the size of the market and the form of the MAC. Smaller market with steeper MAC will gain more from linking.
