Climate policies in a fossil fuel producing country : demand versus supply side policies
Fæhn, Taran; Hagem, Cathrine; Lindholt, Lars; Mæland, … - 2014
In absence of joint global climate action, several jurisdictions unilaterally restrict their domestic demand for fossil fuels. Another policy option for fossil fuel producing countries, not much explored, is to reduce own supply of fossil fuels. We explore analytically and numerically how...

Europe Beyond Coal - An Economic and Climate Impact Assessment
Boehringer, Christoph - 2020
Several European countries have decided to phase out coal power generation. Emissions from electricity generation are already regulated by the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS), and in some countries like Germany the phaseout of coal will be accompanied with cancellation of emissions allowances....

Carbon Footprints of European Manufacturing Jobs : Stylized Facts and Implications for Climate Policy
Wagner, Ulrich J. - 2020
This paper presents first results from a new European-wide research network for evidence-based climate policy. Using administrative data on industrial firms in Finland, France, Germany, Lithuania, Norway, and Sweden,we construct harmonized measures of carbon dioxide emissions per job. We...

Emissions leakage and subsidies for pollution abatement. Pay the polluter or the supplier of the remedy?
Fischer, Carolyn; Greaker, Mads; Rosendahl, Knut Einar - Statistisk Sentralbyrå, Government of Norway - 2012
Asymmetric regulation of a global pollutant between countries can alter the competitiveness of industries and lead to emissions leakage. For most types of pollution, abatement technologies are available for firms to produce with lower emissions. However, the suppliers of those technologies tend...

Targeted carbon tariffs. Carbon leakage and welfare effects
Böhringer, Christoph; Bye, Brita; Fæhn, Taran; … - School of Economics and Business, Norges miljø- og … - 2015
Climate effects of unilateral carbon policies are undermined by carbon leakage. To counteract leakage and increase global cost-effectiveness carbon tariffs can be imposed on the emissions embodied in imports from non-regulating regions. We present a theoretical analysis on the economic...

CO2-emissions from Norwegian oil and gas extraction
Gavenas, Ekaterina; Rosendahl, Knut Einar; Skjerpen, Terje - School of Economics and Business, Norges miljø- og … - 2015
Emissions from oil and gas extraction matter for the lifecycle emissions of fossil fuels, and account for significant shares of domestic emissions in many fossil fuel exporting countries. In this study we investigate empirically the driving forces behind CO2-emission intensities of Norwegian oil...
