Fossil fuel subsidy inventories vs. net carbon prices: A consistent approach for measuring fossil fuel price incentives
Böhm, Jens; Peterson, Sonja - 2021
Different reports including the broadly cited OECD fossil fuel subsidy inventory arrive at high monetary values of fossil fuel subsidies and suggest that phasing out these subsidies has a high potential to increase the efficiency of climate policies. We show that the inventory approach gives...

The challenges and prospects for carbon pricing in Europe
Barnes, Alex - 2021
Carbon pricing is seen as an essential tool of decarbonisation, and hence of meeting net zero emissions targets by 2050. Both the EU 27 and the UK have committed to reaching net zero by 2050, and include carbon pricing as part of their strategy. The paper provides an overview of the current...

The Effectiveness of Taxing Carbon Content of Energy Consumption
Sen, Suphi; Vollebergh, Herman R. J. - 2016
We estimate the long-run effect of a uniform carbon tax on energy consumption by using a new and unique dataset in which effective tax rates of OECD countries are calculated in terms of carbon dioxide emissions. The effective tax rates account for the widely discussed tax deductions for specific...
