A simple model is used to illustrate the effects of a reduction in (marginal) abatement cost in a two country setting. It can be shown that a the country experiencing a cost reduction can actually be worse off. This holds true for a variety of quantity and price based emission policies. The most...

We present a simple approach to transform a deterministic numerical model, where several agents simultaneously make decisions, into a stochastic model. This approach, which builds on scenario aggregation, a numerical method developed to solve decision problems under uncertainty, is used to build...

This study assesses the global economic consequences of climate-related risk in three broad areas: (1) the macroeconomic impacts of physical climate risk due to chronic climate change associated with global temperature increases and climate-related extreme shocks; (2) the macroeconomic effects...

In this paper we try to quantify/measure the main factors that influence the equilibrium outcome and pursued strategies in a simplistic model for the use of fossil versus green energy over time. The model is derived using the standard Solow macro-economic growth model in a two-country setting...

We propose and implement a method to identify shocks to transition risk. We identify transition risk shocks as instances where a strong differential valuation of green versus brown firms coincides with significant information on climate change. For that purpose, we combine information from...

We propose and implement a method to identify shocks to transition risk, addressing key challenges regarding its definition and measurement. Our shocks are instances where significant new information about the economic relevance of climate change increases the valuation of green firms over brown...

Investors’ awareness of climate risks and attention to green investments are on the rise especially after the Paris Agreement. It stands to reason that this rise in awareness has an impact on the connection between clean energy prices and oil and technology stock prices. In this paper, we test...

This paper investigates the asymmetric effects of climate policy uncertainty (CPU) and the global price of energy index (GPEI) on Bitcoin prices. It applies the nonlinear ARDL method and the Granger causality test to examine how changes in climate policy uncertainty and energy prices influence...

Climate change and uncertainty about its potential consequences has become a central concern for economists, investors, and policymakers alike. I use a stochastic, dynamic general equilibrium model where final output is produced using a mix of cheap, dirty inputs and expensive, clean inputs and...
