| Shrnutí: | The Airplane carbon barter mechanism is a sort of Personal Carbon Trading (PCT) system for allocating emissions allowances to French air travelers, combined with a barter mechanism at the shadow carbon price of €100 in the first year, and following the price growth trajectory defined in the Quinet II report for the following years. It can also be described as a hybrid carbon tax subsidy with a threshold. Based on the latest available data, each French citizen would have an emission allowance of 0.4 tons of carbon in the first year. The modus operandi is similar to a Covid-type app, with a QR code required at check-in by airlines to obtain a boarding pass. The personal carbon account is reserved for French nationals or residents of France. We estimate that the TCA could lead to a 6% reduction in total emissions in the first year, for a market exchange value of around €1.5 billion. The TCA is also a transfer mechanism that redistributes purchasing power essentially from the last decile to the first decile, which could increase its purchasing power by 0.5%. We also propose a variant of the ACB mechanism to make it consistent with the EU-ETS. JEL Codes : Q52, Q54, Q58, R48 |
