Market Power in Interactive Environmental and Energy Markets: The Case of Green Certificates
Amundsen, Eirik S.; Nese, Gjermund - 2016
interwoven in the electricity market as the producers of green electricity are also the suppliers of TGCs. In this paper, we … formulate an analytic equilibrium model for simultaneously functioning electricity and TGC markets, and focus on the role of … market power. We consider a Stackelberg leadership model with endogenous treatment of the interaction between the electricity …

Did the renewable fuel standard shift market expectations of the price of ethanol?
Baumeister, Christiane; Ellwanger, Reinhard; Kilian, Lutz - 2017
It is commonly believed that the response of the price of corn ethanol (and hence of the price of corn) to shifts in biofuel policies operates in part through market expectations and shifts in storage demand, yet to date it has proved difficult to measure these expectations and to empirically...

Erneuerbare Energien: Status und Potentiale
Pflüger, Antonio - In: Vierteljahrshefte zur Wirtschaftsforschung 76 (2007) 1, pp. 35-49
Unter heutigen Rahmenbedingungen muss davon ausgegangen werden, dass der globale Primärenergieverbrauch sich bis 2050 mehr als verdoppeln wird und die energiebedingten CO2-Emissionen sogar um 137% steigen. Die Abhängigkeit der OECD-Staaten von Energieimporten würde weiter wachsen und der...
