We introduce a new microsimulation model built on household transport data to study the distributional effects of carbon-based fuel taxation of private road transport in Germany. Our data includes annual mileage at the car-level, the distinction between fuel types, as well as car-specific fuel...

While prior literature has identified various effects of environmental policy, this note uses the example of a proposed carbon permit system to illustrate and discuss six different types of distributional effects: (1) higher prices of carbon-intensive products, (2) changes in relative returns to...

We study the distributional effects of a pollution tax in general equilibrium, with general forms of substitution where … pollution might be a relative complement or substitute for labor or for capital in production. We find closed form solutions for … pollution, output prices, and factor prices. Various special cases help clarify the impact of differential factor intensities …
