To mitigate climate change in an accelerated time frame, more research is needed to understand how to achieve effective large-scale diffusion of low-carbon innovations. The conceptualization of sectoral socio-technical system transitions requires extending beyond an economic and technological...

In short, yes. I use a multi-region integrated assessment model with fuel-specific endogenous technical change to examine the impact of Europe and China reducing emissions to zero by mid-century. Without international technological diffusion this is insufficient to avoid catastrophic climate...

The utilization of fossil fuels and deforestation are the primary causes of global warming and climate change. Innovation is therefore essential to achieve green energy and sustainable development. As part of the Paris Agreement, Colombia has pledged to cut 51% of its emissions by 2030 and...

We construct an overlapping generations model in which the choice between dirty and clean technology hinges on the economy's capital stock, susceptible to climate-induced depreciation. The process of capital accumulation contributes to environmental emissions, yet their intensity can be...
