This paper provides an empirical test of the Coase Theorem. I analyze whether emissions are independent from allowance allocations in the electricity sector as regulated under the EU's Emissions Trading System (EU ETS). Exogenous variation in levels of free allocation for power producing...

This paper tests the independence property under the Coase Theorem in a large multinational cap-and-trade scheme for greenhouse gas emissions, the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS). I analyze whether emissions of power producers regulated under the EU ETS are independent from allowance...

Zaklan (2023) examines the coasean independence property in the EU-ETS. To test this property, the author studies whether emissions are independent from the free allowance allocation. Some allowances were given for free to all EU Member States until 2012. From 2013 allowances were fully...
