Instrument choice and stranded assets in the transition to clean capital
Rozenberg, Julie; Vogt-Schilb, Adrien; Hallegatte, Stéphane - 2017 - This version: March 2017
To mitigate climate change, some governments opt for instruments focused on investment, like performance standards or feebates, instead of carbon prices. We compare these policies in a Ramsey model with clean and polluting capital, irreversible investment and a climate constraint. Alternative...
