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....

Carbon policy and the structure of global trade
Balistreri, Edward J.; Böhringer, Christoph; … - 2015
Alternative perspectives on the structure of international trade have important implications for the evaluation of climate policy. In this paper we assess climate policy in the context of three important alternative trade formulations. First is a Heckscher-Ohlin model based on trade in...

Sense and no(n)-sense of energy security indicators
Böhringer, Christoph; Bortolamedi, Markus - 2015
Energy security ranks high on the policy agenda of many countries. To improve on energy security, governments undertake regulatory measures for promoting renewable energy, increasing energy efficiency, or curbing carbon dioxide emissions. The impacts of such measures on energy security are...

Efficiency and equity implications of alternative instruments to reduce carbon leakage
Böhringer, Christoph; Carbone, Jared C.; Rutherford, … - 2012
The cost-effectiveness of unilateral emission abatement can be seriously hampered by emission leakage. We assess three widely-discussed proposals for leakage reduction targeted at energy-intensive and trade-exposed industries: border tax adjustments, output-based allocation and industry...

Economic and environmental impacts of raising revenues for climate finance from public sources
Böhringer, Christoph; Schneider, Jan; Springmann, Marco - 2017
In response to anthropogenic climate change, developed countries have committed themselves to raise 100 billion USD a year from 2020 onwards for addressing the needs of developing countries. In this paper, we investigate the economic and CO2 emission impacts of four alternative options for...

Fair Division with General Equilibrium Effects and International Climate Politics
Böhringer, Christoph; Helm, Carsten - 2008
This paper introduces a solution for the fair division of common property resources in production economies with multiple inputs and outputs. It is derived from complementing the Walrasian solution by welfare bounds, whose ethical justification rests on commonality of ownership. We then apply...
