Second-best renewable subsidies to de-carbonize the economy : commitment and the green paradox

Rezai, Armon; Ploeg, Frederick van der - 2016 - Revised January 2016

that global carbon taxes remain elusive, policy makers have to use a second-best subsidy. In case of credible commitment … transition to the carbon-free takes longer and cumulative carbon emissions are higher. Under first-best and second best with pre-commitment … peak warming is 2.1 - 2.3 °C, under second best without commitment 3.5°C, and without any policy temperature 5.1°C above …

Optimal carbon tax with a dirty backstop oil, coal or renewables?

Ploeg, Frederick van der; Withagen, Cees - 2011

Optimal climate policy is studied. Coal, the abundant resource, contributes more CO2 per unit of energy than the exhaustible resource, oil. We characterize the optimal sequencing oil and coal and departures from the Herfindahl rule. “Preference reversal” can take place. If coal is very dirty...

Untapped fossil fuel and the green paradox : a classroom calibration of the optimal carbon tax

Ploeg, Frederick van der - In: Environmental economics and policy studies 17 (2015) 2, pp. 185-210

...The optimal carbon tax reduces emissions from burning fossil fuel, both in the short and medium run. Furthermore, it brings forward the date that renewables take over from fossil fuel and encourages the market to keep more fossil fuel locked up. A renewables subsidy induces faster fossil fuel...
