The EU ETS and firm profits : an ex-post analysis for Swedish energy firms
Yu, Haisan - 2011
In January, 2005, the EU launched the first international emissions trading system (EU ETS), aimed at reducing carbon emissions in a cost-effective way by means of a market-based instrument. In this paper, we use the treatment/control, before/after design of the natural experiment approach to...

Climate policies and Sweden’s green industrial revolution
Pareliussen, Jon - 2023
Sweden is among OECD best performers in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, much thanks to a comprehensive policy …, notably for transport, agriculture and carbon removals. Sweden’s long record as a climate frontrunner is also threatened by … revolution is gaining momentum in Sweden’s north, fuelled by an abundant supply of clean electricity. Considerable investments in …

Renewable resource use with imperfect self-control
Strulik, Holger; Werner, Katharina - 2020
We investigate renewable resources when the harvesting agents face self-control problems. Individuals are conceptualized as dual selves. The rational long-run self plans for the infinite future while the affective short-run self desires to maximize instantaneous profits. Depending on the degree...

Hyperbolic discounting and the time-consistent solution of three canonical environmental problems
Strulik, Holger - 2017
In this paper I propose a time-consistent method of discounting hyperbolically and apply it to three canonical environmental problems: (i) optimal renewable resource use, (ii) the tragedy of the commons, (iii) economic growth and pollution. I then compare results with those for conventional...

Hyperbolic discounting and the time-consistent solution of three canonical environmental problems
Strulik, Holger - 2017
In this paper I propose a time-consistent method of discounting hyperbolically that contains the discount rate implied by Gamma discounting as a special case. I apply the discounting method to three canonical environmental problems: (i) optimal renewable resource use, (ii) the tragedy of the...

Renewable Resource Use with Imperfect Self-Control
Strulik, Holger; Werner, Katharina - 2020
We investigate renewable resources use when the harvesting agents face self-control problems. Individuals are conceptualized as dual selves. The rational long-run self plans for the infinite future while the affective short-run self desires to maximize instantaneous profits or utility. Depending...
