Bewertung der klimapolitischen Maßnahmen und Instrumente: eine Studie im Auftrag der E.ON AG

Wackerbauer, Johann; Albrecht-Saavedra, Jutta; … - 2011

Die globale Erwärmung und die daraus resultierenden ökonomischen und sozialen Konsequenzen sind eng verbunden mit dem Ausstoß von Treibhausgasen. Dem Kyoto-Protokoll nach ist die Europäische Union verpflichtet, die Emissionen dieser Gase bis zum Zeitraum 2008/2012 um 8% gegenüber 1990 zu...

Modified Ramsey Discounting for Climate Change

Tol, Richard S.J. - 2013

The Ramsey rule for the consumption rate of discount assumes a transfer of money of a (representative) agent at one point in time to the same agent at another point in time. Climate policy (implicitly) transfers money not just over time but also between agents. I propose three alternative...

Environmental coalitions with heterogeneous countries: Burden-sharing and carbon leakage

Botteon, Michele; Carraro, Carlo - 1998

In this paper a simple model is used to analyse the strategic behaviour of countries that bargain over CO2 emission reductions. Five main world regions are considered and their incentives to sign an international agreement on climate change control are analysed. A non-cooperative approach to...

Benefits & costs of Kyoto

Shogren, Jason - 1999

The 1998 Kyoto protocol signalled a new earnestness of international intent toward addressing the perceived risk of climate change. Kyoto demands that developed nations turn their economies so as to hit differentiated, sub-1990 level carbon emission targets within the next decade or so. But when...

Reaching national Kyoto-targets in Germany by maintaining a sustainable development

Bayer, Stefan; Kemfert, Claudia - 2000

Within this paper, we analyse the fulfilment of the Kyoto-emissions reduction com-mitment exemplary in Germany and its implication on long-term paths of all macro-variables. Germany, like all other industrial or Annex B coun-tries, has to reduce its emissions by 2010 and after what we call a...

"Ecological Value Added" in an Integrated Ecosystem-Economy Model. An Indicator for Sustainability

Kratena, Kurt - 2001

This paper sets up an input-output system of the relevant ecosystem flows that determine the carbon cycle in the global ecosystem. Introducing energy as the value added component in the ecosystem, the flows can be expressed in "energy values". Linking the ecosystem input-output model with the...

Relationship Between CO2 Emissions and Trade: The Case of the EU

Steinhauser, Dušan; Kittová, Zuzana; Khúlová, Lucia - In: Intereconomics 59 (2024) 1, pp. 41-47

measures to address climate change. This article focuses on CO2 emissions as one of the trade flow determinants of the EU … development expenditures. The authors conclude that EU exports and imports are growing to or from those partner countries whose CO …2 emissions are rising. Furthermore, the growing similarity between the emissions of the EU and partner countries …

Ökonomische Effekte des EU-Emissionshandelssystems auf Fluggesellschaften und EU-Mitgliedstaaten: ein innovativer Modellierungsansatz

Schaefer, Martin; Scheelhaase, Janina; Grimme, Wolfgang; … - In: Vierteljahrshefte zur Wirtschaftsforschung 79 (2010) 2, pp. 194-210

Im Februar 2009 trat die EU-Richtlinie zur Einbeziehung des internationalen Luftverkehrs in den EU-Emissionshandel mit … CO2-Zertifikaten (EU-ETS) in Kraft. Ab dem Jahre 2012 werden für praktisch alle in der EU startenden und landenden Flüge … EU-Emissionshandels (EU-ETS) für den Luftverkehr vor. Mit Hilfe dieses Modells werden aktuelle und zukunftsbezogene CO2 …

Climate policy under fat-tailed risk: An application of dice

Hwang, In Chang; Reynès, Frédéric; Tol, Richard S. J. - 2011

Uncertainty plays a significant role in evaluating climate policy, and fattailed uncertainty may dominate policy advice. Should we make our utmost effort to prevent the arbitrarily large impacts of climate change under deep uncertainty? In order to answer to this question we propose an new way...

Coal and Gas - From Cradle to Grave with Carbon Capture and Storage

Steinkraus, Arne - 2015

Existing studies on Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) only focus on costs and carbon dioxide (CO2 ) reduction that arise at the power plant and geological storage. These studies do not consider additional expenses and emissions at the input and output pathways. Consequently, we use a simulation...
