Game of Pollution Reduction Investment under Uncertainty

We construct a game model of real options in which two countries determine the timing of the investment in pollution reduction as a strategy, and examine how strategic factors affect each countrys investment decision. Investment is assumed to be irreversible and its benefit (a value of damage parameter) is uncertain. We derive a noncooperative Nash equilibrium and a Pareto efficient cooperative solution. The countries become more careful when applying an investment in pollution reduction. However, there is a discrepancy between noncooperative and cooperative solutions, and each countrys investment is delayed by the strategic effect, which shows cooperative relations are essential for efficient reductions of pollution.
