Economic and environmental impacts of a carbon adder in New York
Akɪn-Olçum, Gökçe; Böhringer, Christoph; … - 2019
New York is considering additional emission regulation on top of its obligations under the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) to achieve its State Energy Plan targets. The proposed measure is a so-called "carbon adder" on CO2 emissions from the power sector which is set as the difference...

Intensity-based rebating of emission pricing revenues
Böhringer, Christoph; Fischer, Carolyn; Rivers, Nicholas - 2022 - Current Draft: May 2022
Carbon pricing policies worldwide are increasingly coupled with direct or indirect subsidies where emissions pricing revenues are rebated to the regulated entities. This paper analyzes the incentives created by two novel forms of rebating that reward additional emission intensity reductions: one...

US climate policy : a critical assessment of intensity standards
Böhringer, Christoph; Garcia-Muros, Xaquín; … - 2015
Intensity standards have gained substantial momentum as a regulatory instrument in US climate policy. Based on numerical simulations with a large-scale computable general equilibrium model we show that intensity standards may rather increase than decrease counterproductive carbon leakage....

The efficiency cost of protective measures in climate policy
Böhringer, Christoph; Garcia-Muros, Xaquin; Cazcarro, … - 2016
Despite recent achievements towards a global climate agreement, climate action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions remains quite heterogeneous across countries. Energy-intensive and trade-exposed (EITE) industries in industrialized countries are particularly concerned on stringent domestic...

Decomposing integrated assessment climate change
Böhringer, Christoph (contributor);  … - 2005
We present a decomposition approach for integrated assessment modeling of climate policy based on a linear approximation of the climate system. Our objective is to demonstrate the usefulness of decomposition for integrated assessment models posed in a complementarity format. First, the...

Financial systems and the role of banks in monetary policy transmission in the euro area
Ehrmann, Michael; Gambacorta, Leonardo; Martínez … - 2001
This paper offers a comprehensive comparison of the structure of banking and financial markets in the euro area. Based on this, several hypotheses about the role of banks in monetary policy transmission are developed. Many of the predictions that have been proposed for the U.S. are deemed...
