    Dear LEAP Community,

    I would like to ask if there is a more precise definition of the Externality Cost tab under the Effects brunch.

    Also, where I set the allowance price for CO2 emissions? Under the Externality Cost tab?

    Thank you in advance
    Sincerely

    Hi Ioannis -

    Have you seen the help page on this variable? It's very brief, but concise:


    You could use this variable to set a CO2 price, if you wanted to apply it anywhere the pollutant is emitted, and for it to appear in your social cost-benefit results.
