This paper analyzed the dynamic conditional correlation between the carbon emission trading prices of Korea, China, EU, New Zealand. This paper was analyzed using the daily data of carbon emission trading prices of each country from January 12, 2015 to January 13, 2021 using the DCC-GARCH model. Summarizing the research results, first, the dynamic conditional correlation between carbon emission trading prices in the EU, Korea, and China, excluding New Zealand, was strong, indicating that there was a co-movement phenomenon. Second, it was found that carbon emission trading prices in major countries have a stronger tendency to co-movement due to global shocks. Third, it appears that the dynamic conditional correlation between the carbon emission trading prices of Korea and China is gradually strengthening. This study confirmed that the co-movement between carbon emission trading prices in Korea and other countries gradually intensified as time passed. In particular, it is meaningful in suggesting the implication that the phenomenon of co-movement between carbon emission trading prices in Korea and China is gradually intensifying.

The emission trading system implemented in Korea is a system in which the government allocates or sells emission rights by setting the emission allowable amount to economic players subject to the emission trading system, allowing companies to freely trade shortfall or extra money through the emission trading market. Korea also had implemented its first emission trading system scheme period of time from 2015 to 2017. As a result of the first planning period in which total of seven Korean airlines were targeted, the emission amount was about 5.51 million KAU, while the quota amount was only about 4.85 million KAU, about 116% of the actual quota was emitted and Domestic airlines have incurred additional costs of about 10.7 billion won. Due to ICAO's implementation of CORSIA, the airlines are expected to have to shoulder additional costs because purchasing exceed quota will be increased in order to offset excess emissions not only on domestic but also on international routes. Thus, this paper had analyzed the characteristics of the carbon trading system of air transport industry and suggested a mix of regulatory policies as an improvement method.

The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is an international environmental treaty to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere. In order to fulfil the commitments of the countries in an economically efficient way, the UNFCCC adapted the emission trading scheme in the Kyoto Protocol. If the UNFCCC's scheme is enforced in the country, considerable changes in electric power industry are expected due to the imposed greenhouse gas emission reduction. This paper proposes a game theoretic model of the case when generation companies participate in both competitive electricity market and emission market simultaneously. The model is designed such that generation companies select strategically between power quantity and greenhouse gas reduction to maximize their profits in both markets. Demand function and Environmental Welfare of emission trading market is proposed in this model. From the simulation results using the proposed model the impact of the emission trading on generation companies seems very severe in case that the emission prices are significantly high.

This paper presents the greenhouse gas emission trading scheme which is under progress as a pilot project at the power sector in preparation for UNFCCC. By referring UK's, Emission Trading is introduced incentive auction to maximize the reduction of greenhouse gas emission. At the 1st step, from year 2006 to 2008, only CO2 is regarded as an objective target to decrease but emission credit is excluded with an assumption and only 5 Generation company take part in as participants. The market operating procedure is composed of participants' registration, baseline verification, incentive auction, the registration of initial and yearly allocation, emission trading, yearly emission verification & approval, yearly obligation conformity, carry forward & incentive grant. It can be serve a guideline the whole aspects of emission trading which will start in 2006 including operation, verification and profit sharing.

This paper analyzed what kind of institutional scheme for domestic policy instruments to reduce GHG emissions are desirable for Korea in complying with the international efforts to mitigate climate change, by focusing on independent abatement(equivalent to the imposition of carbon tax) and domestic emission trading. It also examined the economic and environmental implications of recycling the government revenue created from implementation of those policies. By utilizing a dynamic CGE model, this study shows that the economic cost under independent abatement is projected to be higher than that under emission trading. It is because under independent abatement scheme each emitter in economy must meet its emission target regardless of the abatement cost. On the other hand, emission trading allows emitters to reduce the marginal cost of abatement through trading of emission permits. In designing future domestic policies and measure to address the climate change problem in Korea, therefore, this study proposes the introduction of domestic emission trading scheme as the main domestic policy instrument for GHG emission abatement. In terms of double dividend, in addition, this study shows that both independent abatement and emission trading schemes under various assumption on the revenue recycling may not generate the double dividend in Korea.

Korean government has been preparing the introduction of Emission Trading as part of the framework convention on Climate Change as a relief of negative downstream effect over electricity industry. This paper develops a mathematical model amenable to analyzing the economic impact of introduced emission trading system on the national generation expansion planning. The developed model was also employed with a case study to verify its applicability.

Korean Emission Trading Scheme entered into force on 1 January 2015. As other Emission Trading Systems, Korean Emission Trading System also have some deficiencies to be complemented and improved. Thus, the issues that are related to legal characteristics of emission allowance and its status as a financial instrument, terminology, requisites for the designation of the business entities eligible for allocation, banking and borrowing, and the non-permanence problems in the forestry offset mechanism are reviewed and the directions of the improvement are presented. The review of the Korean Emission Trading Scheme and its relevant act and the presidential decree at its early stage may be helpful for the Korean ETS to be firmly settled and to operate properly.

본 연구는 한국에서 온실가스 감축을 위해 온실가스 배출권거래제 또는 탄소세, 그리고 두 정책수단이 혼합하여 도입될 경우 한국의 경제, 에너지소비, 그리고 온실가스 배출량에 미치는 파급효과를 분석하였다. 연산일반균형모형인 KORTEM을 이용한 다양한 시나리오 분석 결과, 탄소세만 부과하는 경우에는 배출권거래제만을 도입하는 경우보다 온실가스 감축의 경제적 비용이 상대적으로 높을 것으로 예측되었다. 따라서 한국은 온실가스 감축을 위한 정책포트폴리오를 설계함에 있어, 국내배출권거래제를 핵심정책으로 도입하며 가능한 많은 기업 및 경제주체들을 배출권거래에 참여시키고, 거래에 참여하지 않는 경제부문의 특성을 반영한 보완적 정책수단을 도입하는 방향으로 정책포트폴리오가 설계되어야 한다.

교토의정서에서 저비용의 온실가스 저감 방안으로 도입된 온실가스 배출권 거래제도는 현재 유럽 배출권 거래 제도를 포함하여 다양한 규모와 지리적 범주를 가진 시장이 운영되고 있으며 우리나라를 비롯한 여러 국가에서 새로운 배출권 거래제도 도입을 계획하고 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 교토의정서를 기반으로 하는 배출권 시장과 자발적 배출권 시장에서 산림 관리 활동의 역할과 인정 범위를 조명하고, 국내 배출권 시장의 도입에 있어 산림부문 참여의 필요성을 고찰하는 것이다. 이를 위해 유럽연합 배출권 거래제도, 시카고 기후 거래소, 뉴사우스웨일즈 온실가스 감축제도, 지역 온실가스 이니셔티브의 사례를 분석하여 각 배출권 시장에서의 산림 흡수원 배출권의 역할과 인정범위를 분석하였다. 국내 배출권 시장에 있어 산림 흡수원 배출권의 포함은 비용절감과 감축활동 참여확대라는 이점과 함께 기술적 복잡성과 직접 감축노력의 감퇴라는 위험요소를 가진다. 하지만 위험요소에 대한 다양한 해법이 제시되고 있고 향후 기후변화협약 하에서 산림 흡수원의 범위와 규정에 대한 변화가 예상되며 국내 현실에서 온실가스 감축을 위한 다양한 접근이 필요한 만큼 산림 흡수원 배출권은 배출권 시장의 한 요소로 포함되어야 할 필요가 있다. 산림분야에 있어서 산림 흡수원 사업의 참여는 산업영역의 확대와 산림관리 재원의 마련이라는 기회를 제공하며 이러한 기회를 활용하기 위한 제도와 기술측면의 대비가 필요하다.

This study has aimed to compare an emission trading system (ETS) in the EU and Japan that introduced the scheme prior to Korea and provided the latter with a benchmarking model. Especially, the EU has a reputation for its well-organized and evolving system, and Japan has also successfully established the system despite its similar condition with Korea, such as an industrial structure and the degree of energy dependence. However, there are noticeable differences between the EU and Japan in their ETS. Whereas Japan has focused on securing certifications in CDM as the implementation of Kyoto protocol, EU has shown a tendency to transform the trading market from a parallel structure of EUA and CER transaction to only the EUA transaction after ending of 1st commitment period of the Kyoto Protocol. Since the differences were mainly caused by not only in a design of the system but also in internal governance and their national circumstance, it is meaningful to analyse the Korean case with a similar framework. This study may contribute to designing an appropriate system for emission trading in Korea through the comparison of the EU and Japanese case.
