Cross-country spillovers of renewable energy promotion : the case of Germany
Abrell, Jan; Kosch, Mirjam - 2021
Electricity generation based on renewable energy (RE) sources such as wind and solar replace the most expensive … generators that often rely on fossil fuels. In response to RE promotion, wholesale electricity prices and carbon emissions are … therefore expected to decrease. In interconnected electricity systems, this so-called merit- order effect stimulates a change in …

What drives carbon emissions in German manufacturing : scale, technique or composition?
Rottner, Elisa; Graevenitz, Kathrine von - 2021
Carbon emissions from German manufacturing have increased over the past decade, while carbon intensity (emissions per Euro of gross output) has declined only slightly. We decompose changes in emissions between 2005 and 2017 into scale, composition (changes in the mix of goods produced) and...

What drives carbon emissions in German manufacturing : scale, technique or composition?
Rottner, Elisa; Graevenitz, Kathrine von - 2022 - This version: August 26, 2022
Drastic emission reductions are necessary to combat climate change. However, despite several climate policies, carbon emissions from German manufacturing have actually increased between 2005 and 2017. In this paper, we provide evidence of how the policy mix overall has affected the German...
