“…However, this stands in stark contrast to the (generally) non-liberalized nature of energy markets in many developing countries (Goldblatt 2010;Wisuttisak 2012). Non-liberalized energy markets however indeed grossly impact the effectiveness of carbon pricing.…”

The challenges associated with achieving sustainable development goals and stabilizing the world's climate cannot be solved without significant efforts by developing and newly-emerging countries. With respect to climate change mitigation, the main challenge for developing countries lies in avoiding future emissions and lock-ins into emission-intensive technologies, rather than reducing today's emissions. While first best policy instruments like carbon prices could prevent increasing carbonization, those policies are often rejected by developing countries out of a concern for negative repercussions on development and long-term growth. In addition, policy environments in developing countries impose particular challenges for regulatory policy aiming to incentivize climate change mitigation and sustainable development. This chapter first discusses how climate policy could potentially interact with sustainable development and economic growth. It focuses, in particular, on the role of industrial sector development. The chapter then continues by discussing how effective policy could be designed, specifically taking developing country circumstances into account.
