A public choice view on the climate and energy policy mix in the EU: How do the emissions trading scheme and support for renewable energies interact?

Gawel, Erik; Strunz, Sebastian; Lehmann, Paul - Department Ökonomie, Helmholtz Zentrum für … - 2013

In this paper, we analyze the rationale for an energy policy mix when the European Emissions Trading scheme (ETS) is considered from a public choice perspective. That is, we argue that the economic textbook model of the ETS implausibly assumes 1) efficient policy design and 2) climate protection...

Climate Policies with Pollution Externalities and Learning Spillovers

Lehmann, Paul - Volkswirtschaftliche Fakultät, … - 2009

Economic theory suggests that with a pollution externality and learning spillovers related to renewable energy technologies, the optimal climate policy mix includes an emissions policy and an output subsidy to the learning industry. Instead of output subsidies, feed-in tariffs are often...

Supplementing an emissions tax by a feed-in tariff for renewable electricity to address learning spillovers

Lehmann, Paul - In: Energy Policy 61 (2013) C, pp. 635-641

In the presence of learning spillovers related to renewable energy technologies, an optimal strategy to mitigate climate change should complement an emissions tax by a subsidy for renewables. This article addresses the question how such subsidy should be designed. It is shown that the...
