Optimal Renewable-Energy Subsidies
Andor, Mark; Voss, Achim - 2014
We derive optimal subsidization of renewable energies in electricity markets. The analysis takes into account that capacity investment must be chosen under uncertainty about demand conditions and capacity availability, and that capacity as well as electricity generation may be sources of...

Releasing the killer from the kitchen? Ventilation and air pollution from biomass cooking
Lenz, Luciane; Bensch, Gunther; Chartier, Ryan; Kane, … - 2022
Household air pollution from biomass cooking is the most significant environmental health risk in the Global South. Interventions to address this risk mostly promote less-polluting stoves and clean fuels, but their diffusion proves difficult. This paper assesses the potentially complementary...
