Deviations in Kilometres Travelled: The Impact of Different Mobility Futures on Energy Use and Climate

Longden, Thomas - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2012

The importance of a focus on mobility and the kilometres travelled using light duty vehicles is reflected in the persistence of strong demand for personal mobility and emissions that tend to be linked with population and economic growth. Simulation results using the WITCH model show that changes...

Can a Small Nation Gain from Introducing a Carbon Tax Early?

Lund, Diderik - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 1994

Carbon dioxide emissions may cause global warming. But own emissions have negligible effects for a small nation, which may thus regard carbon taxes as distortionary. Such taxes may have other effects, however. When research and development (R&D) has positive external effects, carbon taxes may...

International R&D Rivalry and Industrial Strategy without Government Commitment

Leahy, Dermot; Neary, J Peter - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 1995

We examine optimal industrial and trade policies in a series of dynamic oligopoly games in which a home and a foreign firm compete in R&D and output. Alternative assumptions about the timing of moves and the ability of agents to commit intertemporally are considered. We show that the home export...
