CANCELED: Women in Energy-Only Workshop: Experimental Economics Workshop on Regulating Green House Gas Emissions

Join the Women in Energy program and CGEP Visiting Scholar Rim Baltaduonis for a hands-on demonstration of how laboratory economics experiments are used to study emitters’ behavior under alternative regulatory regimes and inform decision makers about policies to control emissions. This Women in Energy-only workshop will include an hour-long computerized simulation of production and investment decisions by carbon emitters under carbon tax and cap-and-trade regulatory regimes. The activity will be followed by a short presentation and an interactive Q&A session. No prior knowledge about carbon pricing or emissions regulatory regimes is necessary to participate. This is a great, interactive way to learn and get insights about carbon pricing alternatives and deepen your understanding about their effects using a unique learning tool. — Due to space constraint, this event is open only to Women in Energy members.  Please note: There is limited capacity for this event. We ask that you register only if you are sure you can attend this event in its entirety. You will be asked to confirm your registration 1 week prior to the event.
