Does social interaction make bad policies even worse? : evidence from renewable energy subsidies
Inhoffen, Justus; Siemroth, Christoph; Zahn, Philipp - 2016
Minimum prices above the market level can lead to ineffcient production and oversupply. We investigate whether this effect is even more pronounced when decision makers are influenced by their social environment. Using data of minimum prices for renewable energy production in Germany, we analyze...

The rise and fall of bioenergy
Hoel, Michael - 2018
If bioenergy has a less negative impact on the climate than fossil energy, it may be optimal to have a significant increase in the use of bioenergy over time. Due to the difference in the way the climate is affected by the two types of energy, the future time path of the use of bioenergy may be...
