Fuel subsidies and carbon emission: Evidence from asymmetric modelling

Adekunle, Ibrahim A.; Oseni, Isiaq Olasunkanmi - 2021

) estimation procedure to gauge the contemporaneous influence of fuel subsidy for carbon intensity in Nigeria. Findings revealed … that fuel subsidy removal inversely relates to Nigeria's carbon emission in the short-run and long run. The study …It is expected that fuel subsidy removal should hinder carbon emissions growth through low energy consumption channels …

How do airlines cut fuel usage, reducing their carbon emissions?

Brueckner, Jan K.; Kahn, Matthew E.; Nickelsburg, Jerry - 2023

Airline fuel consumption is costly for the firms and for society as well due to a climate-change externality. We study how fuel price changes affect cost-minimizing choices by airlines that have implications for the extent of this externality. The airline industry's capital stock can be easily...

The response of CO2 emissions to macroeconomic shocks : a panel VAR analysis

Omar, Nadeen; Klose, Jens - 2024

Global efforts towards mitigating climate change gain momentum; reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and aiming for zero emissions, or carbon neutrality, is the main goal. Economic factors are main determinants of CO2 emissions coming from production and energy consumption. This paper aims to...

Fuel Consumption Dynamics in Europe - Implications of Fuel Tax Reforms for Air Pollution and Carbon Emissions from Road Transport

Zimmer, Anne - 2016

This paper estimates the potential of fuel tax reforms to curb harmful air pollutants and carbon emissions from road transport in Europe. We provide robust estimates for the responsiveness of fuel consumption to changes in prices, which constitute a key determinant for emissions pathways in...

Carbon pricing of international transport fuels : Impacts on carbon emissions and trade activity

Mundaca, Gabriela - 2022

We study the impacts of carbon taxation of international transport fuels on CO2 emissions andtrade activity, focusing on maritime transport, which constitutes the most important internationaltrade transport activity. Our estimated bunker price elasticities range from 􀀀 0.03 to 􀀀 0.42....

Biofuels subsidies and the green paradox

Grafton, R. Quentin; Kompas, Tom; Long, Ngo Van - 2010

This paper develops sufficient conditions under which the Weak Green Paradox may (and may not) hold in terms of subsidies for biofuel production such that the supply-side responses by fossil fuel producers may more than offset the substitution to biofuels. Analytical results are derived and...

Impacts of wholesale electricity price under varying carbon price levels on carbon emissions and economic output in Australia

Nepal, Rabindra; Paija, Nirash - 2020

Reducing global carbon emissions and mitigating the adverse impacts of climate change is a fundamental environmental challenge. Australia's target is to reduce carbon emissions by between 26% and 28% by 2030 compared to 2005 emission levels. Carbon pricing can be an effective market-based...

How effective are energy-efficiency incentive programs? : evidence from Italian homeowners

Alberini, Anna; Bigano, Andrea - 2014

We evaluate incentives for residential energy upgrades in Italy using data from an original survey of Italian homeowners. In this paper, attention is restricted to heating system replacements, and to the effect of monetary and non-monetary incentives on the propensity to replace the heating...
