Max, I'd just note that the percent of economy emissions covered increases as well. Industrial emissions fall under the cap in 2014 and natural gas emissions in 2016. The increases in allowances in those two years reflect this expansion in the program. The draft of the bill had similar jumps and yet was able to pull total US emissions on a downward trajectory (http://www.wri.org/publication/usclimatetargets - We'll hopefully have an update to reflect the new targets after the dust clears this week.)
