Abstract

The expansion of renewable energy sources (RES) is a core element used for mitigating carbon emissions in the power sector in many countries. Besides such national measures, the European Union Emission Trade System (EU ETS) limits the carbon emissions and aims at an efficient allocation of the carbon mitigation.
