Pollution permits and environmental innovation
Article Abstract:
Plain allowance markets have a negative effect on environmental innovations because they lead to undesirable pollution in the case of innovation. The government can expropriate an innovation by utilizing private markets that offer competing pollution-abating technologies. The government can also apply downward pressure on the licensing price of pollution-abating technologies and use advance allowances to reduce expropriation.
