Technology transfers in the Clean Development Mechanism: an incentives issue

Environment and Development Economics, 2002, vol. 7, issue 3, 449-466

Abstract: The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) offers abatement cost savings under the Kyoto Protocol by allowing credits for emission reductions obtained in signatory developing countries. The paper argues that technology transfers can improve incentives for cost-effective emission reductions under bilateral CDM contracts when there is asymmetric information between the investor and the host party.JEL classification: Q20; D82
