Carbon Accounting by Public and Private Financial Institutions : Can We Be Sure Climate Finance Is Leading to Emissions Reductions?

Spittle, Emily; Dietrich Brauch, Martin - 2021

As reporting GHG emissions becomes mandatory in the financial sector, the methods by which emissions are calculated will grow in importance for their impact on the resulting metric. Progress is underway in both the public and private financial sectors to embed emissions accounting standards, but...

Climate Policy and the Optimal Extraction of High- and Low-Carbon Fossil Fuels

Smulders, Sjak - 2013

We study how restricting CO2 emissions affects resource prices and depletion over time. We use a Hotelling-style model with two nonrenewable fossil fuels that differ in their carbon content (e.g., coal and natural gas) and that are imperfect substitutes in final good production. We study both an...

The Economics of Climate Change Mitigation : Policies and Options for the Future

Burniaux, Jean-Marc; Chateau, Jean; Duval, Romain; … - 2008

Considering the costs and risks of inaction, ambitious action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is economically rational. However, success in abating world emissions will ultimately require a least-cost set of policy instruments that is applied as widely as possible across all emission sources...

Do we still need carbonIntensive capital when transitioning to a green economy?

Jin, Wei; Ploeg, Frederick van der; Zhang, Lin - 2020

This paper presents a two-sector green endogenous growth model to explore a mechanism that explains why carbon … gives the economic means to enhance clean capital accumulation and sustain endogenous growth. Both carbon-intensive and … carbon-free capital may thus be needed for an efficient transition to green growth. …
