Green industrial policy is normally conceived as measures to foster the development of new green sectors. This chapter explores the ways in which such sectors can be fostered by disrupting existing polluting sectors. It explores several case studies of this dynamic in action, including fossil...

This case study is part of the CEPS project ‘Climate for Sustainable Growth', whose main objective is to analyse the impacts of climate change mitigation measures on the three pillars of sustainable development: the economic, environmental and social dimensions. It analyses food labeling via...

Green industrial policies can be defined as industrial policies with an environmental goal-or more precisely, as sector-targeted policies that affect the economic production structure with the aim of generating environmental benefits. This paper provides a framework to assess their desirability...

To mitigate climate change, some governments opt for instruments focused on investment, like performance standards or feebates, instead of carbon prices. We compare these policies in a Ramsey model with clean and polluting capital, irreversible investment and a climate constraint. Alternative...

Countries have pledged to stabilize global warming at a 1.5 to 2°C increase. Either target requires reaching net zero emissions before the end of the century, which implies a major transformation of the economic system. This paper reviews the literature on how policymakers can design climate...
