The paper establishes a CGE/MPSGE model for evaluating energy policy measures with emphasis on their employment impacts. It specifies a dual labor market with respect to qualification, two different mechanisms for skill specific unemployment, and a technology detailed description of electricity...

[Einleitung und Motivation] Sektorkopplung bzw. Sektorenkopplung ist in den letzten Jahren in der Energie- und Klimapolitik als neue Begrifflichkeit aufgetaucht. Der hohe politische Stellenwert der Sektorkopplung in der heutigen energiepolitischen Diskussion spiegelt sich unter anderem im...

The diffusion of promising energy technologies in the market depends on their future energy production-cost development. When analyzing these technologies in an integrated assessment model using endogenous technological learning, the uncertainty in the assumed learning rates (LRs) plays a...

A steady increase of natural gas demand can be observed in Europe over the last decades. Due to the European obligation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the framework of the Kyoto Protocol, the trend toward natural gas is expected to continue in the future. The increased consumption is...

Auch wenn die im Rahmen des Kyoto-Protokolls von Deutschland eingegangene Verpflichtung zur Reduktion von Treibhausgasen nur auf der Bundesebene völker- bzw. EUrechtlich bindend ist, sind die Bundesländer zunehmend gefordert, regionale Strategien als Antwort auf das globale Klimaproblem zu...

Since the Kyoto protocol has come into force, Germany's federal states are increasingly confronted with the task of undertaking own climate protection measures. This paper introduces the conception of integrated regional climate protection programmes from an economic point of view and points out...
