Over the last decade Germany has boosted renewable energy in power production by means of massive subsidies. The flip side are very high electricity prices which raises concerns that the transition cost towards a renewable energy system will be mainly borne by poor households. In this paper, we...

This paper studies the impact of national carbon taxes on CO2 emissions. To do so, we run local projections on a cross …-country panel dataset, matching measures of emissions of carbon dioxide with information on the introduction of carbon taxes and … their implied price. Importantly, we consider both measures of territorial emissions - emissions emitted within a country …
