Simultaneous use of black, green, and white certificates systems : a rather messy business
Amundsen, Eirik Schrøder; Bye, Torstein - 2016
We formulate a model with black, green and white certificates markets that function in conjunction with an electricity market. The markets function well in the sense that a common equilibrium solution exist, where all targets are satisfied (e.g. share of green electricity and share of energy...

Can electric vehicles aid the renewable transition? : evidence from a field experiment incentivising midday charging
La Nauze, Andrea; Friesen, Lana; Lim, Kai Li; Menezes, … - 2024
In a field experiment tracking 390 electric vehicles minute-by-minute, we show that incentives reduce charging by 17%—27% during peak times and increase it by 34% during midday when solar generation is highest. Peak charging decreases at home, while midday charging rises out of the home....

The disciplinary effect of post-grant review : causal evidence from European patent opposition
Nagler, Markus; Sorg, Stefan - 2019
We study the causal impact of invalidating marginally valid patents during post-grant opposition at the European Patent Office on affected inventors' subsequent patenting. We exploit exogenous variation in invalidation by leveraging the participation of a patent's original examiner in the...

What determines effectiveness of renewable energy standards? : general equilibrium analytical model and empirical analysis
Fullerton, Don; Ta, Chi L. - 2022
Our new analytical general equilibrium model is used to study effects of tightening state Renewable Portfolio Standards (RPS) on electricity price, CO2 emissions, fossil fuel electricity generation, and two kinds of renewable generation. We show how those outcomes depend on key state...

Population aging and inventive activity
Irmen, Andreas; Litina, Anastasia - 2016
This research empirically establishes and theoretically motivates the hypothesis that population aging has a hump-shaped effect on inventive activity. We estimate this hump-shaped relationship in a panel of 33 OECD countries over the period 1960-2012. The increasing part of the hump captures the...

Global collaborative patents
Pekkala Kerr, Sari; Kerr, William R. - 2016
We study the prevalence and traits of global collaborative patents for U.S. public companies, where the inventor team is located both within and outside of the United States. Collaborative patents are frequently observed when a corporation is entering into a new foreign region for innovative...
