Alleviating adverse implications of EU climate policy on competitiveness : the case for border tax adjustments or the clean development mechanism?

Alexeeva-Talebi, Victoria (contributor); … - 2008

Ambitious unilateral EU environmental policy has raised concerns about adverse competitiveness implications for European energy-intensive and export-oriented sectors. We analyze the economic and environmental implications of two different measures to address these concerns in the EU Emission...

The EU decarbonisation roadmap 2050 : what way to walk?

Hübler, Michael; Löschel, Andreas - 2013 - This version: 16/04/2013

We carry out a detailed CGE (Computable General Equilibrium) analysis of the EU Decarbonisation Roadmap 2050 on a macroeconomic and on a sectoral level. Herein, we study a Reference scenario that implements existing EU policies as well as 3 unilateral and 3 global climate action scenarios. We...

Designing an emissions trading scheme for China : an up-to-date climate policy assessment

Hübler, Michael; Löschel, Andreas; Voigt, Sebastian - 2014

We assess recent Chinese climate policy proposals in a multi‐region, multi‐sector computable general equilibrium model with a Chinese carbon emissions trading scheme (ETS). When the emissions intensity per GDP in 2020 is required to be 45% lower than in 2005, the model simulations indicate...

Climate policy and the problem of competitiveness : border tax adjustments or integrated emission trading?

Alexeeva-Talebi, Victoria (contributor); … - 2008

In the absence of an international agreement on climate policy, unilateral carbon abatement creates two problems: It tends to have a detrimental effect on domestic competitiveness, and it leads to an increase in carbon emissions abroad (leakage). This paper analyses two policies that have...

Technological uncertainty and cost-effectiveness of CO2 emission trading schemes

Löschel, Andreas (contributor); … - 2008

This paper studies implications of uncertainty about the arrival date of a competitive CO2 backstop technology for the design of cost-effective CO2 emission trading schemes. For this purpose, we develop a dynamic general equilibrium model that captures empirical links between CO2 emissions...

Impure public goods and technological interdependencies

Löschel, Andreas (contributor); … - 2005

Impure public goods represent an important group of goods. Almost every public good exerts not only effects which are public to all but also effects which are private to the producer of this good. What is often omitted in the analysis of impure public goods is the fact that regularly these...

Coordinating to protect the global climate : experimental evidence on the role of inequality and commitment

Tavoni, Alessandro; Dannenberg, Astrid; Löschel, Andreas - 2010

Free riding and coordination difficulties are held to be the primary causes of cooperation breakdown among nonrelatives. These thwarting effects are particularly severe in the absence of effective monitoring institutions capable of sanctioning deviant behavior. Unfortunately, solutions to global...

Did Fukushima matter? : empirical evidence of the demand for climate protection in Germany

Gallier, Carlo; Löschel, Andreas; Sturm, Bodo - 2013

This paper investigates the extent to which the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster of March 2011 has had an impact on the private demand for climate protection in Germany. Data are taken from two framed field experiments (Löschel et al. 2013a, b) conducted before and after the disaster. We find...
