The Behavioral Effects of Carbon Taxes – Experimental Evidence
Grieder, Manuel - 2020
Carbon taxes are a prominent policy instrument for decreasing the consumption of CO2-intensive goods in order to reduce the negative external effects involved in the production or consumption of such goods. A tax leads to higher consumer prices, which typically lowers consumption. However, in...

The political economy of negotiating international carbon markets
Arvaniti, Maria; Habla, Wolfgang - 2020
International carbon markets are frequently propagated as an efficient instrument for reducing CO2 emissions. We argue …, it may be more promising to negotiate agreements with non-tradable emissions caps. …

To abate, or not to abate? : a strategic approach on green production in Cournot and Bertrand duopolies
Buccella, Domenico; Fanti, Luciano; Gori, Luca - 2020
This research analyses the firms' strategic choice of adopting an abatement technology in an environment with pollution externalities when the government levies an emission tax to incentivise firms undertaking emission-reducing actions. A set of different Nash equilibria - ranging from dirty to...

On the time-dependency of MAC curves and its implications for the EU ETS
Hintermayer, Martin; Schmidt, Lukas; Zinke, Jonas - 2020
Recently, several articles rely on marginal abatement cost (MAC) curves to analyze the EU ETS. While the assumptions on MAC curves drive the results, the prevailing literature on the EU ETS does not take the shape of MAC curves into account. This paper discusses the implications of MAC curve...

Demand versus supply side climate policies with a carbon dioxide ceiling
Eichner, Thomas; Kollenbach, Gilbert; Schopf, Mark - 2018
Consider a dynamic model with two countries or coalitions that consume and trade fossil fuel. A non-abating country owns the entire fuel stock and is not concerned about climate change, represented by a ceiling on the carbon dioxide concentration. The government of the other country implements...

The tradeoff between indirect network effects and product differentiation in a decarbonized transport market
Andreassen, Gøril L.; Rosendahl, Knut Einar - 2020
What factors determine whether it is optimal with one or more technologies in a decarbonized road transport sector, and what policies should governments choose? We investigate these questions theoretically and numerically through a static, partial equilibrium model for the road transport market....
