The purpose of this paper is to introduce a modification of a standard four input production process where energy is … used in an inefficient way due to partly unnecessary waste of energy. In this production process, R&D investment is an … additional input in order to improve energy efficiency. It closes the gap between energy purchased and energy used effectively …

We compare a range of energy efficiency policies in a durable good market subject to both energy-use externalities and …-end good. The rates should always be decreasing in energy efficiency. With per-quality subsidies, there is no such interference … product line if consumers are not too dissimilar, otherwise it should only target the low-end good. An energy tax should be …

In this article, we look at the combination of several market-based climate and energy policies and compare them with … control policy is imperfect designed or implemented, its performance can be improved by an energy (output) tax/subsidy scheme …, where the subsidy is given only to renewable generators or for energy efficiency improvements. This combination can bring …
