With the expansion of renewable energy sources (RES) in countries all over the world, policy design to address the … negative impacts of RES plants on their local and regional environment gains in importance. We analyse whether policy design … should be spatially-differentiated or uniform when negative RES environmental externalities are spatially heterogeneous and …

Biofuel policies are a subset of policies designed to achieve energy security, an improved environment, enhanced … agricultural incomes, technological change, and overall economic benefits, with increased domestic energy production creating green … perverse and contradictory effects. Most importantly, we show how biofuel policies established the crop-energy price link and …

factors for energy taxes are the optimal tariff argument, the need to correct externalities such as global warming, and second …-best considerations for taxing transport fuels as road charges, but these are inadequate to explain current energy taxes. EU energy tax … different tax or subsidy regimes. This paper considers what tax theory has to say about efficient energy tax design. The main …

Most developed and developing country governments levy taxes on gasoline and diesel fuel used by motor vehicles …. However, outside of the United States and Europe, automobile and heavy truck externalities have not been quantified, so … develops a general approach for roughly gauging the magnitude of motor vehicle externalities, and hence the corrective tax on …
