The Impact of the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme on Competitiveness in Europe

Oberndorfer, Ulrich; Rennings, Klaus - Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW) - 2006

This literature review analyses the impacts of the EU ETS on competitiveness focussing on existing simulation studies … relevant literature. We find, however, that effects of the scheme on competitiveness are modest, even given the business as … regulation methods ETSs can have positive competitiveness effects. However, the EU ETS is not designed to boost Europe?s economy …

International trade and the adaptation to climate change and variability

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

This paper has three messages mainly, which are observed in a simple model of climate change, international trade and regional adaptation. First, trade can be viewed as a kind of adaptation to climate change and variability, as trade can help to reduce direct impacts of global climate change on...

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...

Social implications of green growth policies from the perspective of energy sector reform and its impact on households

Heindl, Peter; Löschel, Andreas - Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW) - 2015

This paper reviews the literature on distributional effects of energy and carbon taxation with focus on microsimulation models. Most studies find that direct energy and carbon taxation tends to be regressive. Regressive effects occur mostly with respect to taxation of electricity or space...

Bigger cakes with less ingredients? A comparison of material use of the world economy

Pothen, Frank; Schymura, Michael - Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW) - 2014

The amount of materials used worldwide in production and consumption increased by 56 per cent from 1995 to 2008. Using an index decomposition analysis based on the logarithmic mean divisia index, we investigate the drivers of material use, both on a global and a country scale. We exploit a panel...

Employment effects of regional climate policy: The case of renewable energy promotion by feed-in tariffs

Heindl, Peter; Voigt, Sebastian - Zentrum für Europäische Wirtschaftsforschung (ZEW) - 2012

For the case of the German state of Baden-Wuerttemberg, production and employment effects of the promotion of renewable energy sources are examined based on a regionalized input-output table. Our findings suggest that policy actions promoting renewable energy types do not necessarily create new...
