"Carbon pricing, whether through trading or taxes, is considered one of the
most important policies to reduce emissions. A price on carbon increases the
operating costs of high carbon fuels relative to lower-carbon alternatives.
This post introduces an index (termed Coal to Clean Carbon Price Index - C3PI)
for approximating the carbon price required to leapfrog fossil gas and support
an electricity system predominantly supplied by variable renewable energy. We
hope C3PI will improve information flows and support the urgent changes
required to align electricity generation with the goals of the Paris
Agreement."
