Abstract

Zusammenfassung Maßnahmen zur Begrenzung des Klimawandels haben Auswirkungen auf den Wettbewerb. Am Beispiel des Brennstoffemissionshandelsgesetzes lässt sich zeigen, warum die umweltpolitisch intendierte Lenkungswirkung der CO2-Bepreisung in von Marktmacht betroffenen Märkten reduziert ist und wie eine konsequente Umsetzung des Kartellrechts diese Situation verbessert. Da der Emissionshandel zudem die internationale Wettbewerbsfähigkeit deutscher und europäischer Unternehmen gefährden kann, gab es bereits Forderungen nach dessen Modifikation. Es drohen Subventionswettläufe und Steuerwettbewerb, denen die Kontrolle staatlicher Beihilfen als Element der europäischen Wettbewerbspolitik, das Welthandelsrecht und Maßnahmen der Klimadiplomatie entgegenwirken.
