Terms-of-trade and the funding of adaptation to climate change and variability: An empirical analysis

Schenker, Oliver; Stephan, Gunter - Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW) - 2012

This paper analyses the interplay between international trade, regional adaptation and North-to-South transfers for funding adaptation within the framework of a dynamic computable gen-eral equilibrium model, where impacts of climate change depend on changes in precipitation and temperature. If...

The labour market in CGE models

Boeters, Stefan; Savard, Luc - Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW) - 2011

This chapter reviews options of labour market modelling in a CGE framework. On the labour supply side, two principal …

Combining Top-Down and Bottom-up in Energy Policy Analysis: A Decomposition Approach

Rutherford, Thomas F.; Böhringer, Christoph - Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW) - 2006

The formulation of market equilibrium problems as mixed complementarity problems (MCP) permits integration of bottom-up programming models of the energy system into top-down general equilibrium models of the overall economy. Despite the coherence and logical appeal of the integrated MCP...

Decomposing the cost of Kyoto: a global CGE analysis of multilateral policy impacts

Böhringer, Christoph; Rutherford, Thomas F. - Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW) - 2000

We decompose the economic implications of the Kyoto Protocol at the cross-country level, splitting the total economic impact for each region into contributions from its own emission abatement policy and those from other regions. Our analysis which is based on a large-scale computable general...

Integrating Bottom-Up into Top-Down: A Mixed Complementarity Approach

Böhringer, Christoph; Rutherford, Thomas F. - Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW) - 2005

We motivate the formulation of market equilibria as a mixed complementarity problem (MCP) in order to bridge the gap between bottom-up energy system models and top-down general equilibrium models for energy policy analysis. Our objective is primarily pedagogic. We first lay out that the MCP...

Specifying parameters in computable general equilibrium models using optimal fingerprint detection methods

Koesler, Simon - Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW) - 2014

to improve the standard parameter specification of computable general equilibrium (CGE) models. On that account, we …. This method originates from climate science and combines a simple model validation exercise with a structured sensitivity … in CGE models, for example for the definition of elasticities or productivity growth rates. …

Designing an emissions trading scheme for China: An up-to-date climate policy assessment

Hübler, Michael; Löschel, Andreas; Voigt, Sebastian - Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW) - 2014

We assess recent Chinese climate policy proposals in a multi-region, multi-sector computable general equilibrium model with a Chinese carbon emissions trading scheme (ETS). When the emissions intensity per GDP in 2020 is required to be 45% lower than in 2005, the model simulations indicate that...

Catching the rebound: Economy-wide implications of an efficiency shock in the provision of transport services by households

Koesler, Simon - Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW) - 2013

We investigate the rebound effect of a 10% energy cefficiency improvement in the provision of private transport services by German households. In the process, we take into account that household behaviour may be influenced by habits, build on a detailed representation of the provision of private...

Beyond national economy-wide rebound effects: An applied general equilibrium analysis incorporating international spillover effects

Koesler, Simon; Swales, Kim; Turner, Karen - Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW) - 2014

This paper proposes that the national focus of energy 'rebound' studies should be extended to an international context in the presence of supra-national agreements such as EU 20-20-20. The potential for energy efficiency improvements in one nation to impact energy use in others means that...
