hi my name is tamer iam an mba student i had an assignment on this topic. iam asking to what extent the companies can gain acommercial benefits from carbon permits trading. i think the light emissioning companies can make a profit from its un emitted allowance by selling it...do any one have an opinion

If a company owns emissions allowances and does not need them to offset its own emissions, it should be able to sell them to someone else who needs them and, provided the seller paid less for them than they sell them for, should be able to make a profit. This is the incentive for the seller to take other actions to reduce their carbon emissions so they don't need to own the emissions allowances. This is the way the SO2 emissions market works in the US, which has been in operation since 1993. See Wiki articles on Emissions Trading and Acid Rain Program.
