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 … electricity, some emissions as well as some coal-based electricity "leak" into other countries and the aggregate welfare of the …

Proponents of Bitcoin argue that demand for electricity from Bitcoin miners can lead to an increase in renewable … electricity capacity. We rigorously evaluate this claim by estimating a Bitcoin electricity demand curve and include this demand … curve in a long-run model of the Texas electricity market. We find that while Bitcoin mining can indeed increase renewable …
