Carbon Policy and the Emissions Implications of Electric Vehicles
Gillingham, Kenneth; Ovaere, Marten; Weber, Stephanie - 2021
Will a carbon tax improve the welfare consequences of policies to promote electric vehicles? This paper examines when a complementarity could exist between carbon pricing and high electric vehicle adoption. We analyze electricity generation in recent years to show that in several regions, carbon...

Effects of Carbon Pricing on Inflation
Moessner, Richhild - 2022
We study how carbon pricing has affected inflation ex-post, using dynamic panel estimation of New-Keynesian Phillips curves for 35 OECD economies from 1995 to 2020. As carbon pricing we consider prices of emissions trading systems (ETS) and carbon taxes. We find that an increase in prices of ETS...

On the Effects of Linking Voluntary Cap-and-Trade Systems for CO2 Emissions
Weitzman, Martin - 2018
Linkage of cap-and-trade systems is typically advocated by economists on a general analogy with the beneficial linking of free-trade areas and on the specific grounds that linkage will ensure cost effectiveness among the linked jurisdictions. An appropriate and widely accepted specification for...

Phase-Out of 'Coal to Power' in an Ets
Eichner, Thomas - 2019
We investigate the displacement effects of phase-out-of-coal policies in a stylized model of electricity generation and CO2 regulation, in which a group of countries operates an emissions trading scheme (ETS). Electricity markets are either international or national and the emissions cap remains...

EU ETS and the New Green Paradox
Rosendahl, Knut Einar - 2019
With the new rules of the EU ETS, involving cancellation of allowances, cumulative emissions are no longer fixed but depending on the market outcome. Perino (2018) showed that additional abatement effort can reduce cumulative emissions if it occurs within a few years. This article shows that...

The Risk-Adjusted Carbon Price
van den Bremer, Ton S. - 2019
We use perturbation methods to derive a rule for the optimal risk-adjusted social cost of carbon (SCC) that incorporates the effects of uncertainties associated with climate and the economy from a calibrated DSGE model. We allow for different aversions to risk and intertemporal fluctuations,...
