We analyze the productivity effects of environmental (green) investment as well as of environmental expenditures and … investment positively impinges upon production growth as a productivity driver. We thus conclude that environmental regulation … should stimulate investment in order to be compatible with economic goals such as productivity. …

Carbon-based import tariffs are proposed as a policy measure to reduce carbon leakage and increase the global cost-effectiveness of unilateral CO2 emission pricing. We investigate the case for carbon tariffs. For our assessment, we combine multi-region input–output and computable general...

Energy markets and energy-intensive industries in all EU member states – especially in Germany – are subject to a diverse set of policies related to climate change. We analyse the potential efficiency losses from simultaneous application of emission taxes and emissions trading in qualitative...
