This paper provides a model-based macroeconomic assessment of First-Mover Advantage (FMA) in environmental technologies, in which a European sector becomes world leader and captures the global market for a particular technology. The E3MG model is used to assess a set of scenarios where the FMA...

This study examines the mechanisms of social cost of carbon (SCC) and marginal abatement cost (MAC) in climate change modeling. To examine this mechanisms, we observed the shifts in the marginal benefit (MB) and marginal cost (MC) curves of carbon dioxide (CO2) abatement when parameter values...

...The optimal carbon tax reduces emissions from burning fossil fuel, both in the short and medium run. Furthermore, it brings forward the date that renewables take over from fossil fuel and encourages the market to keep more fossil fuel locked up. A renewables subsidy induces faster fossil fuel...

This paper, using a computable general equilibrium model with highly disaggregated household groups, analyses the distributional impact of a carbon tax in a developing economy. Indonesia, ont of the largest carbon emitters among developong countries, is utilized as a case study in this paper....
