Unlike previous literature on environmental innovation, where the price of permits decreases after the adoption of a less polluting technology, Sanin and Zanaj (2011) has identified when it is the case that the price of permits increases, assuming Cournot competition in the output market. I extend their model and examine the changes in the parameters when the firms play a Stackelberg game and Bertrand game in the output market.
