Context and Objectives Adressed questions What do INDCs mean? And what might be the economic impacts of INDC 1 implementation? How an international carbon market might affect climate agreements? 2 How to share additional efforts on 2015-2050 to reach the 2 o C target in 2100? 3 How to design a fair agreement among groups of countries? How each country will use its allocations on the horizon 2015-2050? What will 4 be the associated costs for each country? 4 / 21

A Dynamic meta-game model for climate negotiations A noncooperative meta-game approach Input Global budget Bud and allocations among countries (i.e., θ j ) Model Minimize the economic impacts for each country by deciding: How to use the budget on the horizon 1 Permit sales and buyings on the trading market 2 Output Emissions, Permit exchanges, Permit prices, Percentage of welfare losses, ... ⇒ By testing different allocations, one can find a fair burden sharing. For example if we adopt a Rawlsian approach to distributive justice, the optimal game design problem consists in finding the θ j ’s in such a way that one minimizes the largest welfare loss among the countries. 7 / 21
A Dynamic meta-game model for climate negotiations Estimation of the abatement cost functions We use the CGE model GEMINI-E3 as a the provider of data for the estimation of the abatement cost functions for each group of countries Estimations are based on statistical emulations of a sample of 200 GEMINI-E3 numerical simulations (4 periods × 11 = nb estimations) The abatement costs are polynomial functions of degree 4 in the country abatement level 2 q j ( t ) 2 + α j 3 ( t ) q j ( t ) 3 + α j AC j ( t ) = α j 1 ( t ) q j ( t ) + α j 4 ( t ) q j ( t ) 4 .
