Pricing climate risk
Jensen, Svenn; Traeger, Christian - 2021
derive a general analytic formula for the "risk premium" governing the resulting climate policy. The formula generalizes … making under uncertainty. It clarifies the distinct roles of risk aversion, prudence, characteristics of the damage … formulation, and future policy response. We show that an optimal response to uncertainty substantially reduces the risk premium. …

Climate change mitigation : how effective is green quantitative easing?
Abiry, Raphael; Ferdinandusse, Marien; Ludwig, Alexander; … - 2022
We develop a two sector incomplete markets integrated assessment model to analyse the effectiveness of green quantitative easing (QE) in complementing fiscal policies for climate change mitigation. We model green QE through an outstanding stock of private assets held by a monetary authority and...

Climate damages in convergence-consistent growth projections
Harding, Tony; Moreno Cruz, Juan; Quaas, Martin F.; … - 2023
Projections of climate change damages based on climate-econometric estimates suggest that, without mitigation, global warming could reduce average global incomes by over 20% towards the end of the century (Burke et al., 2015). This figure significantly surpasses climate damages in Integrated...

Climate policies under climate model uncertainty : max-min and min-max regret
Rezai, Armon; Ploeg, Frederick van der - 2017 - Revised May 2017
Temperature responses and optimal climate policies depend crucially on the choice of a particular climate model. To illustrate, the temperature responses to given emission reduction paths implied by the climate modules of the well-known integrated assessments models DICE, FUND and PAGE are...

The green paradox : a supply-side view of the climate problem
Sinn, Hans-Werner - 2015
Why have policies aimed at reducing the demand for carbon not succeeded in slowing down global carbon extraction and CO2 emissions, and why have carbon prices failed to increase over the last three decades? This comment argues that this is because of the Green Paradox, i.e. - (the anticipation...

Oil trade and climate policy : presented at CESifo Area Conference on Energy and Climate Economics, October 2014
Curuk, Malik; Sen, Suphi - 2015
