About 30 years after German reunification a persistent gap in different firm performance measures exists between East and West Germany. In this paper I focus on the differences in new German manufacturing plants' location choices across the German district-free cities and districts and...

We estimate the causal impact of the EU Emissions Trading Scheme on manufacturing firms using comprehensive panel data from the German production census. Semiparametric matching estimators yield robust evidence that the policy caused treated firms to abate one fifth of their CO2 emissions...

This paper represents an addition to the scanty empirical evidence relating to the impactof climate change on the manufacturing sector. To study the effect of temperature onenergy use, CO2 emissions, and firms’ economic performance, we combine daily temperatureinformation from 11,000 German...

Based on economic and ecological criteria this paper proposes an evaluation framework for the provision of green electricity for charging plug-in electric vehicles in Germany, using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) approach for a Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis. The frame-work allows for a...
