We analyse six different approaches to intervene the market. These six are; cancellation of allowances, revision of the reduction rate, backloading, extending demand, price floor and implementation of a market stability reserve. To find a solution for an optimal cost efficient market we try to find market equilibrium where the marginal damage curve and the marginal abatement cost curve cross. By using supply and demand we try to see how the market will react differently to changes in the system. Our conclusion is based... (More)
