Computable general equilibrium models simulate the reaction of industries on carbon taxes. Their results differ strongly on the assumption of the underlying technologies. This paper compares two models and emphasizes the differences between their approaches to technology. The first model is the...

Energy price shocks pose sudden challenges to economies. This paper examines how oil price shocks have influenced the U.S. economy over the last decades and especially focuses on the productivity slowdown in the years following an oil price shock. We extend the existing literature by considering...

In this paper, we use a CGE model with endogenous growth to study the interplay between environmental regulation, innovation and sectoral growth. We find that a stringent reduction target for carbon emissions combined with a CO2-tax leads to structural changes. Under the assumption of a...
