Optimal climate policy under exogenous and endogenous technical change : making sense of the different approaches

Coppens, Léo; Dietz, Simon; Venmans, Frank - 2024

, and technical change is one of the key assumptions in any IAM that estimates mitigation costs. We conduct a systematic …

A unifying theory of foreign intervention in domestic climate policy

Moreno Cruz, Juan; Harding, Anthony - 2022

We propose a theory of climate-policy motivated foreign intervention to study different forms of international climate governance in the presence of power imbalance. Foreign countries have at least three options to intervene in another country's domestic climate policy: i.) Agreements with...

An economic anatomy of optimal climate policy

Moreno Cruz, Juan; Wagner, Gernot; Keith, David W. - 2018

At the same time, human capital has a vital role in driving effective climate change mitigation and … document the existing evidence on the impacts of climate change damages, and the effects of climate change mitigation and … of the life cycle. For mitigation and adaptation, we find that while these are overall clearly beneficial, they are also …

Effects of green technology support policies on carbon dioxide emissions

Moessner, Richhild - 2024

This paper provides ex-post empirical evidence on the effects of green technology support policies, in comparison with other climate policies, on carbon dioxide emissions at the aggregate national level. The paper uses cross-country dynamic panel estimation for a sample of 38 countries over the...

Scaling up renewable energy storage with sodium ion batteries and green technology policy

Heisenberg, Lavinia; Moessner, Richhild - 2025

A key element in the transition to net zero carbon emissions is increasing the use of renewable energy, especially wind and solar energy, and scaling up energy storage sustainably to enable their greater use. This paper discusses the advantages and challenges of scaling up renewable energy...

The learning process and technological change in wind power : evidence from China's CDM wind project

Tang, Tian; Popp, David - 2014

The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) is a project-based carbon trade mechanism that subsidizes the users of climate-friendly technologies and encourages technology transfer. The CDM has provided financial support for a large share of Chinese wind projects since 2002. Using pooled...

Optimal climate policy as if the transition matters

Campiglio, Emanuele; Dietz, Simon; Venmans, Frank - 2022

The optimal transition to a low-carbon economy must account for adjustment costs in switching from dirty to clean capital, technological progress, and economic and climatic shocks. We study the low-carbon transition using a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model with emissions abatement...

Climate damages in convergence-consistent growth projections

Harding, Tony; Moreno Cruz, Juan; Quaas, Martin F.; … - 2023

Projections of climate change damages based on climate-econometric estimates suggest that, without mitigation, global …

Competing stochastic thresholds : the green transition as a race between "the good" and "the ugly"

Lorentzen, Linnea; Strøm, Steinar; Vislie, Jon - 2024

We derive policy rules for a highly aggregated fossil-based world economy with two competing stochastic thresholds or tipping points. Current production generates emissions that add to a stock of GHGs that affect the probability distribution of hitting a climate threshold with severe...
