Pigou's advice and Sisyphus' warning : carbon pricing with non-permanent carbon-dioxide removal
Kalkuhl, Matthias; Franks, Max; Gruner, Friedemann; … - 2022
Carbon dioxide removal from the atmosphere is becoming an important option to achieve net zero climate targets. This paper develops a welfare and public economics perspective on optimal policies for carbon removal and storage in non-permanent sinks like forests, soil, oceans, wood products or...

Patent protection and the transition to clean technology
Alsina-Pujols, Maria; Hovdahl, Isabel - 2023
We analyze the use of patent protection as a new policy to direct technical change to clean technology. Contrary to popular belief, it is dirty (and not clean) innovations that should be excluded from patent protection to reduce emissions. In the shortrun, removing patent protection on dirty...

The clean energy R&D strategy for 2°C
Marangoni, Giacomo; Tavoni, Massimo - 2013
This paper uses an integrated assessment model to quantify the climate R&D investment strategy for a variety of scenarios fully consistent with 2°C. We estimate the total climate R&D investment needs in approximately 1 USD Trillion cumulatively in the period 2010-2030, and 1.6 USD Trillions in...

Technological transfers in global climate policy
Buchholz, Wolfgang; Dippl, Lisa; Eichenseer, Michael - 2015 - This version: September 30, 2015
Theoretical analysis and empirical evidence show that leadership behavior in climate policy through increased abatement efforts or international transfers cannot be expected to be very successful. In this paper we instead show that pioneering activities, which are based on green technological...

"The voracity effect" and climate change : the impact of clean technologies
Benchekroun, Hassan; Chaudhuri, Amrita Ray - 2011
We show that a technological breakthrough that reduces CO2 emissions per output can exacerbate the climate change problem: countries may respond by raising their emissions resulting in an increase of the stock of pollution that may reduce welfare. Using parameter values based on empirical...

'The Voracity Effect' and Climate Change : The Impact of Clean Technologies
Benchekroun, Hassan - 2013
In the absence of a successful international cooperative agreement over the control of emissions there is a growing interest in the role that clean technologies may play to alleviate the climate change problem. Within a non-cooperative transboundary pollution game, we investigate, analytically...
