In this paper we examine the influence of foreign direct investment inflows on energy intensities of developing … countries empirically. We first show that a simple OLS estimation, as it is found in the literature, suggests energy intensity … reductions from FDI inflows, which is consistent with the hypothesis of energy saving technology transfer via FDI. However, such …

After the conferences in Bonn and Marrakech it is likely that international emission trading will be realized in the near future. Major influences on the permit market are the institutional detail, the participation structure and the treatment of hot air. Different scenarios do not only differ...
