Can Europe Plug Its Carbon Leaks with the CBAM?
April 4 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm
This is a hybrid event. For those attending virtually, a Zoom link will be sent out the day of the event.
Boxed lunches will be available to go following the talk!
On the path to achieving carbon neutrality, the European Union (EU) has recently adopted a Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) to address carbon leakage from international trade. Visiting Scholar Stefan Ambec of the Toulouse School of Economics will review the challenges in the design of the EU’s CBAM and discuss its impact on competitiveness, trade, carbon pricing, carbon emissions and the welfare.
Speaker
Stefan Ambec is INRAE Research Professor at Toulouse School of Economics where he leads the TSE Energy and Climate Center. He is Editor-in-Chief for Resource and Energy Economics. His research focuses on the impacts of environmental policies: about their efficiency, fairness properties, their effect on firms’ strategies, on the welfare of citizens and their behavior. Topics include the energy transition, water use, air quality and climate change.
Please note this is a hybrid event. We look forward to welcoming guests to the Kleinman Center’s Energy Forum. In accordance with the University of Pennsylvania’s COVID-19 guidelines, masks are optional for all visitors. Boxed lunches will be available to go following the event!
