Abstract: Abstract In this paper Weight-SBM-Undesirable DEA model to the problem of initial tradable permit allocation is presented. It assumes that airports produce two types of outputs: desirable and undesirable outputs (namely carbon dioxide emissions, airport noise, the number of delayed flights and so on.). The criterion of allocation is to produce more desirable outputs and less undesirable outputs relative to less inputs. The proposed approach is the improvement of traditional allocation (Grandfathering, GF); it is non-radial and non-oriented and does not require information on input and output prices. According to mathematical analysis, although the novel allocation is not as effective as the auction model, it improves the equity-fairness and effectiveness of allocation and can be better use in practice. What’s more, the model is applied on a dataset from 39 Spanish airports.
