Purpose of the meeting
At its August 3 meeting, the Regulatory Advisory Panel (RAP) for the CO2 Trading Regulation (Revision C17) expressed a desire to learn more about the various options for allocating allowances. Members of the RAP and the public are invited to a webinar on the topic hosted by the Georgetown Climate Center. The webinar will provide a survey of the various options for allocating allowances in an emissions trading program and their implications. Among the options to be explored are direct allocation on the basis of generation (or output), emissions or other metric, as well as the distinction between historical and updating allocation. A webinar recording will be available on Georgetown Climate Center’s website after the event. Please register with Georgetown Climate Center at this web address: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/3525779032655290114 no later than c.o.b. August 18, 2017.
