But our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/abs\/pii\/S0360544220311038?via%3Dihub\">new paper<\/a>\u00a0in the journal\u00a0<em>Energy<\/em>\u00a0shows how companies that invest now in a novel approach to climate mitigation could help manage their risk of future policy obligations more effectively and at a lower cost.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The challenge<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In\u00a0<em>Energy<\/em>, we demonstrate how policy uncertainty puts greenhouse gas emitting companies in a bind, raising risks for these companies and making it likely that carbon prices\u2014an indicator of costs\u2014will rise in a series of sudden bursts, rather than following a smooth transition.<\/p>\n<p>Policy uncertainty discourages private investment in low-carbon technologies. However, when credible climate policy is finally in place, industry will have missed out on prudent investment opportunities and face spiking costs as they rush to catch up with tightened emissions controls requirements.<\/p>\n<p>In the paper, we show that companies have a latent demand for suitable strategies that can help manage these risks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Abatement short squeeze<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When a government institutes stronger climate policy, businesses may find themselves over-weighted with carbon-intensive assets. Caught short of investments to reduce or \u201cabate\u201d emissions, companies will rush to rebalance their capital stock in favor of lower carbon technologies. At the same time, other businesses will also be rushing to unload high-carbon assets and adopt the lower carbon technology. This can cause carbon prices and associated costs of reducing emissions to rise dramatically.<\/p>\n<p>This is similar to the case in financial markets when prices jump as investors must rush to square accounts on an investment they have bet against\u2014going \u201cshort\u201d rather than \u201clong\u201d \u2014 in anticipation of falling prices. Until now, such a \u201cshort squeeze\u201d was a phenomenon of the stock market \u2014 product of speculations and uncalculated risk. Climate change threatens to create such a squeeze of much broader scope and economic consequences.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A down payment on abatement<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Companies need access to strategies to manage the risks of future climate liabilities. In our study, we describe how companies could reduce the costs of meeting pollution targets in an uncertain policy landscape by making relatively small investments today that can preserve the flexibility to reduce emissions more dramatically in the future\u2014essentially putting a down payment into cost-effective climate protection programs from large-scale sources. Such strategies can include investments in research and development that could pay off in the future through the availability of low-carbon technologies.<\/p>\n<p>A conceptually similar way to manage exposure to future climate costs is by helping to secure and preserve low-cost \u201ccall options\u201d on future abatement. A \u201ccall\u201d is a type of option that gives companies the right but not the obligation to purchase an underlying product (whether it be a stock, commodity, or carbon credit) in the future at a guaranteed price. We highlight tropical forest conservation as an ideal type of program that companies can use to buy large-scale call options on abatement. A down payment on abatement on forest protection programs would yield an immediate impact on protecting climate, biodiversity, and local communities, while protecting companies\u2019 ability to obtain further cost-effective emissions reductions in the future.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Call options on large-scale forest protection programs (REDD+)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tropical forests contain the world\u2019s largest reservoir of carbon within natural ecosystems that once lost cannot be recovered within the necessary time to avoid dangerous climate disruptions. Protecting these forests is thus a time-limited opportunity, but it doesn\u2019t require expensive new technologies or infrastructure. As a result, tropical forest conservation offers one of the least cost ways to immediately reduce carbon emissions at large scales, while providing a multitude of other local and global benefits. Forests also remove carbon from the atmosphere, and as long as they remain intact they will continue to store that carbon. A relatively small investment in protecting forests now can provide urgent near-term financing for conservation while securing call options on carbon credits from ongoing future forest protection.<\/p>\n<p>Tighter emissions targets could lead companies to rush to invest in renewable energy more or less simultaneously. This spike in investment may well exceed the ability of the global capital market to mobilize capital and investment resources. For example, it would be impossible to double or quadruple production of wind turbines or solar panels over a year or so. The economy may reach a physical limitation that could be hardly compensated by pumping capital.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, hedging this risk by investing to secure the ability to generate credits from large-scale programs to protect tropical forests (known as\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.edf.org\/redd-protecting-tropical-forests\">REDD+ programs<\/a>), companies, and the world, could \u201cflatten the curve\u201d on the costs of capital rebalancing to comply with climate policies. This keeps the total volume of investment below a critical level that could lead to bankruptcy or excessive macro-economic disruption (green line in figure 1).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/climate411\/files\/2020\/07\/Abatement-Short-Squeeze-graph.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20274\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/climate411\/files\/2020\/07\/Abatement-Short-Squeeze-graph.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"575\" height=\"381\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Who benefits?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>By selling REDD+ credits or call options on such credits to firms, forest nations, particularly in the tropics, can start receiving a fair price for keeping their forests protected. Such financing is important to help governments cover their costs of protecting forests and to align incentives of communities, farmers, ranchers and commodity buyers and consumers around forest protection and sustainable agriculture, rather than destructive activities like illegal logging and inefficient cattle ranching.<\/p>\n<p>EDF and partners are pioneering innovative pay-for-performance mechanisms for reducing deforestation. These include the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.emergentclimate.com\/\">Emergent Forest Finance Accelerator<\/a>, which links private sector buyers to environmentally rigorous, high-integrity carbon credits from large-scale forest protection programs.<\/p>\n<p>Investments in high-quality REDD+ programs can play an important role in protecting the climate, environment and communities, while allowing companies to better prepare for the moment when society begins implementing more dramatic measures to tackle climate change. To help start the flow of credits, policymakers, companies and other stakeholders should agree on high standards for environmental quality and support the inclusion and prioritization of high-quality REDD+ programs within voluntary climate commitments as well as regulated carbon market systems.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This post was co-authored by Alexander Golub, Adjunct Professor of Environmental Science at American University.
