We study how individual inventors respond to incentives to work on "clean" electricity technologies. Using natural gas … price variation, we estimate output and entry elasticities of inventors and measure the medium-term impacts of a price … increase mirroring the social cost of carbon. We find that the induced clean innovation response primarily comes from existing …
