This book focuses on the linking of the European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) with other independent regional ETS.
While rich practical and academic research has evolved on the economic and technical side of ETS linking, political drivers and barriers have so far been underrepresented in this debate. Filling this lacuna and based on international relations theory, existing research and qualitative fieldwork, this book introduces the range of political conditions that influence linking, such as political leadership and stakeholder activity. Specifically, it analyzes which of these aspects have played a role in three different linking activities of the EU: (1) a failed linking attempt: EU ETSCalifornia Cap-and-Trade Program; (2) a successful linking treaty: EU ETSSwitzerland Emissions Trading System; and (3) an agreed-upon but not realized link: EU ETSAustralia Carbon Pricing Mechanism. Through an interrogation of these examples, Dr. Unger concludes that it is not only the technical challenges or the overall economic benefit but rather domestic interests, structural aspects, and external international political developments that have jointly dominated linking activities, especially those in which the EU takes part.
This book will be of great interest to scholars and policy-makers working in climate policy and EU environmental politics.
