Output and Attribute-Based Carbon Regulation Under Uncertainty
Kellogg, Ryan - 2019
Output-based carbon regulations--such as fuel economy standards and the rate-based standards in the Clean Power Plan--create well-known incentives to inefficiently increase output. Similar distortions are created by attribute-based regulations. This paper demonstrates that, despite these...

Leakage, Welfare, and Cost-Effectiveness of Carbon Policy
Baylis, Kathy - 2013
We extend the model of Fullerton, Karney, and Baylis (2012 working paper) to explore cost-effectiveness of unilateral climate policy in the presence of leakage. We ignore the welfare gain from reducing greenhouse gas emissions and focus on the welfare cost of the emissions tax or permit scheme....

Can a Unilateral Carbon Tax Reduce Emissions Elsewhere?
Elliott, Joshua - 2013
Most CGE models do not allow for negative leakage. In this paper, we use a full CGE model with many countries and many goods to measure effects in a way that allows for negative leakage. We vary elasticities of substitution and confirm the analytical model's prediction that negative leakage...

Endogenizing Technological Change : Matching Empirical Evidence to Modeling Needs
Pizer, William A. - 2007
Given that technologies to significantly reduce fossil fuel emissions are currently unavailable or only available at high cost, technological change will be a key component of any long-term strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. In light of this, the amount of research on the pace,...
