Der Einsatz von Ethanol, erzeugt aus landwirtschaftlichen Grundstoffen, wird in vielen Ländern als vorrangige Form praktiziert, um fossile Kraftstoffe in einem gewissen Umfang zu substituieren. Dabei ist weltweit eine steigende Tendenz zu beobachten, und es entstehen durch den Aufbau eines...

We determine the optimal exploitation time-paths of three types of perfect substitute energy resources: The first one is depletable and carbon-emitting (dirty coal), the second one is also depletable but carbon-free thanks to a carbon capture and storage (CCS) process (clean coal) and the last...

Using a standard Hotelling model of resource exploitation, we determine the optimal consumption paths of three energy resources: dirty coal, which is depletable and carbon-emitting; clean coal, which is also depletable but carbon-free thanks to an abatement technology (CCS: Carbon Capture and...

To overcome the drawbacks in estimating the rate of input substitution in existing econometric models, our paper is first to estimate the absolute/net rate of input substitution of capital and labor for energy in China¡¯s industrial sector. Based on trans-log cost function with constant...

To understand the potential impacts of China’s accession to WTO in her new de-sulphur policy (reduction of 10% of SO2 emission in 2005 with respect to that of 2000), we construct a CGE model in which the SO2 emission is linked directly to energy intermediary consumption in production. The...
