| description |
In response to a challenge from members
of the Carbon Pricing Panel for the world to expand carbon
pricing to cover 25 percent of global emissions by 2020,
Ethiopia commissioned a carbon pricing study to obtain
recommendations on the role and possible forms of carbon
pricing policies in Ethiopia. The study summarized in this
report is a collaborative effort by the Government of
Ethiopia, the Ethiopian Development Research Institute
(EDRI), and the World Bank to better understand the
potential benefits and costs for Ethiopia with use of carbon
pricing to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The study
also investigates distributional impacts of carbon pricing
and measures that can help address unwanted distributional
impacts. The specific aims include supporting the Government
of Ethiopia (GoE) in identifying policy actions, including
carbon pricing, to achieve its GHG emission reduction
targets; facilitating a dialogue among Ethiopian
stakeholders on related policy instruments; and building
analytical and technical capacity for GoE's future
policy planning. Lessons from this analysis may also be
useful for other low-income countries. |
