The SkyShares model enables users to relate a target limit for temperature change to a global
emissions ceiling; to allocate this
emissions budget across countries using different policy rules; and then uses estimated marginal
abatement costs to calculate the costs faced by each country of decarbonising to meet its
emissions budget, with the costs for each country depending in part on whether and how much
carbon trading is allowed.
Differences in
carbon prices can be attributed to differences in reference scenario
emissions, and thus the level of
