The green paradox and learning-by-doing in the renewable energy sector

Nachtigall, Daniel; Rübbelke, Dirk T. G. - 2014

The green paradox conveys the idea that climate policies may have unintended side effects when taking into account the reaction of fossil fuel suppliers. In particular, carbon taxes that will be implemented in the future induce resource owners to extract more rapidly which increases present...

Climate change mitigation : how effective is green quantitative easing?

Abiry, Raphael; Ferdinandusse, Marien; Ludwig, Alexander; … - 2022

We develop a two sector incomplete markets integrated assessment model to analyze the effectiveness of green quantitative easing (QE) in complementing fiscal policies for climate change mitigation. We model green QE through an outstanding stock of private assets held by a monetary authority and...
