► Price floors for emissions trading schemes guarantee a minimum carbon price. ► Price floors mean that emissions can be less than specified by the ETS cap. ► We examine how price floors can relate to different policy objectives. ► We compare different mechanisms for implementing a price floor. ► We find that a mechanism where there is an extra tax or fee has advantages.
