Energy Biased Technical Change: A CGE Analysis

Otto, Vincent M.; Löschel, Andreas; Dellink, Rob - Fondazione ENI Enrico Mattei (FEEM) - 2005

This paper studies energy bias in technical change. For this purpose, we develop a computable general equilibrium model that builds on endogenous growth models. The model explicitly captures links between energy, the rate and direction of technical change, and the economy. We derive the...
