Tarification Carbone et Développement économique

July 6, 2022

Le Policy Center for the New South et Enel Green Power Maroc co-organisent un webinaire sur "la tarification du carbone et le développement économique". Cette rencontre permettra de débattre des défis, des avantages et des limites des mécanismes de tarification du carbone et de leur impact sur la compétitivité et la croissance économique.

La tarification du carbone est une approche qui utilise les mécanismes du marché pour réduire les émissions, atténuant ainsi le changement climatique et favorisant l'action climatique nationale et internationale. D'une part, la tarification du carbone a le potentiel de décarboner l'activité économique mondiale en modifiant le comportement des consommateurs, des entreprises et des investisseurs, tout en libérant l'innovation technologique et en générant des revenus. D'autre part, elle fait face à de nombreuses critiques principalement liées aux impacts distributifs, notamment sur les ménages, et à la préservation de la compétitivité de certains secteurs.

D’après la Banque Mondiale, près de 65 initiatives de tarification du carbone ont été mises en œuvre en 2021, dans 45 juridictions nationales, couvrant 21,5 % des émissions mondiales de gaz à effet de serre. La même année, l'Union Européenne (UE) a dévoilé sa proposition de mécanisme d'ajustement aux frontières, une taxe prélevée aux frontières de l'UE, destinée à prévenir les fuites de carbone et à encourager les partenaires commerciaux de l'UE à accélérer leurs stratégies de décarbonation.

Ce nouvel environnement complexe soulève des questions sur le rôle des mécanismes de tarification du carbone en tant que moyen efficace de lutte contre le changement climatique et sur leur impact sur les pays en développement.

    The road to decarbonizing the planet runs through the energy transition, which includes the shift from fossil-fueled cars to renewable energy vehicles. This automotive transition is unfolding as a true revolution in the industry. The evolution toward electric and hybrid vehicles has come in tandem with the ascent of Chinese producers. In the current context of geopolitical and technological rivalries, the automotive transition has been marked by an intense trade war, with implicati ...

    The global economic environment has changed as the U.S.—and to a less confrontational degree, the European Union—have clearly established a context of technological rivalry with China. Hindering China’s progress in the sophistication of semiconductor production has become a centerpiece of current U.S. foreign policy. While the U.S. is clearly winning the semiconductor war, the picture is different when it comes to clean-energy technology. Both technology wars overlap with access to ...

    Nothing better illustrates the positive contribution of the integration of national economies into global value chains than the fact that in the 1990s, the automotive sector barely existed in Morocco. Now, it is the leading export sector, with a production and assembly capacity of 700,000 vehicles, making it an attractive and competitive hub linking Africa and Europe in the automotive value chain. However, the automotive industry is on the cusp of change, with advances in electric a ...

    La succession des chocs pandémique, climatique et géopolitique a éprouvé les économies africaines. Les liens commerciaux et financiers avec le monde ne sont plus seulement considérés comme des moteurs de performance, mais aussi comme des sources potentielles de vulnérabilité. La défiance à l’égard de la mondialisation s’est accrue. Parce qu’elle est venue souligner la dépendance du continent, le dérèglement de ses rapports à la nature et sa vulnérabilité face aux tensions géopolitiq ...

    Known for being a climate change hotspot, Morocco is at the forefront of a climate disaster. Consequences are already being felt, whether in the form of increasing temperature or a downward trend in precipitations, which directly threaten the water security and, by extension, the social-ecological systems of the country. The systems by which food, energy, and water are produced, distributed, and consumed heavily depend on one another. Their implicit feedbacks and links are not linea ...

    Energy markets have experienced significant disruptions since the outbreak of COVID-19. In late 2021, soaring natural gas prices triggered a new crisis, leading to risks of energy supply shortages worldwide and propelling the issue of energy security to the forefront. Africa will not be spared the repercussions of this crisis, which could further increase energy inequality, which is in turn linked to other forms of inequality. Indeed, in a context of persistent inflation, the lack o ...

     Accelerating the transition toward low or net-zero carbon emissions is necessary to keep global warming at theoretically safe levels. That will likely bring price shocks associated with rising metal prices, energy costs, and carbon taxes – what has been called “greenflation”. Greening the economy will also require public spending and redistributive policies. ...
