Tax Exemption for Biofuels in Germany: Is Bio-Ethanol Really an Option for Climate Policy?
Henke, Jan M.; Klepper, Gernot; Schmitz, Norbert - Institut für Weltwirtschaft (IfW) - 2003
by allegedly positive effects on climate, energy, and agricultural policy goals. The paper takes a closer look at bio-ethanol … of biofuels and show that the production of bio-ethanol in Germany is not competitive. Using energy and greenhouse gas … there are preferred alternative strategies. In addition, scenarios on the development of the bio-ethanol market are derived …

Steuerbefreiung für Biokraftstoffe: Ist Bio-Ethanol wirklich eine klimapolitische Option?
Henke, Jan M.; Klepper, Gernot; Netzel, Jens - Institut für Weltwirtschaft (IfW) - 2002
Agrarpolitik gerechtfertigt. Das Arbeitspapier analysiert am Beispiel Bio-Ethanol als Benzinsubstitut auf nationaler und … Treibhausgasbilanzen die tatsächlichen Auswirkungen der Förderung und einer möglichen vermehrten Verwendung von Bio-Ethanol untersucht …. Dabei zeigt sich, dass die Verwendung von Bio-Ethanol zur Reduktion von Treibhausgasemissionen ineffizient ist und …

EU Biofuel Policies in Practise - A Carbon Map for the Llanos Orientales in Colombia
Lange, Mareike; Suarez, César Freddy - Institut für Weltwirtschaft (IfW) - 2013
It is still difficult for biofuel producers to prove the contribution of their biofuels to reducing carbon emissions because the production of biofuel feedstocks can cause land use change (LUC), which in turn causes carbon emissions. A carbon map can serve as a basis to proof such contribution....

DART-BIO: Modelling the interplay of food, feed and fuels in a global CGE model
Calzadilla, Alvaro; Delzeit, Ruth; Klepper, Gernot - Institut für Weltwirtschaft (IfW) - 2014
Land use and land use change are determined as much by economic and institutional drivers as they depend on bio-physical conditions. Future pathways of socio-economic and environmental systems can only be assessed with scenarios which describe possible future paths of development. For this...

Integrating biofuels into the DART model: Analysing the effects of the EU 10% biofuel target
Kretschmer, Bettina; Peterson, Sonja; Ignaciuk, Adriana M. - Institut für Weltwirtschaft (IfW) - 2010
Biofuels and other forms of bioenergy have received increased attention in recent times: They have partly been acclaimed as an instrument to contribute to rural development, energy security and to fight global warming but have been increasingly come under attack for their potential to contribute...

The economic effects of the EU biofuel target
Kretschmer, Bettina; Narita, Daiju; Peterson, Sonja - Institut für Weltwirtschaft (IfW) - 2009
In this paper we use the CGE model DART to assess the economic impacts and optimality of different aspects of the EU climate package. A special focus is placed on the 10% biofuel target in the EU. In particular we analyze the development in the biofuel sectors, the effects on agricultural...

Integrating Bioenergy into Computable General Equilibrium Models – A Survey
Kretschmer, Bettina; Peterson, Sonja - Institut für Weltwirtschaft (IfW) - 2008
In the past years biofuels have received increased attention since they were believed to contribute to rural development, energy security and to fight global warming. It became also clear, though, that bioenergy cannot be evaluated independently of the rest of the economy and that national and...
