Transportation, the second largest contributor of CO2 emissions, is not part of the European Emission Trading System. Since transportation is subject to national environmental instruments, this causes differences in marginal abatement costs, and hence, results in economic inefficiencies. We...

In this paper we extend an existing computable general equilibrium (CGE) model to perform optimal policy design exercises. Specifically, to an otherwise standard CGE model, we add an objective function that allows us to compute optimal values for selected policy variables. In turn, the CGE model...

Computable general equilibrium (CGE) modeling is an attempt to use general equilibrium theory as a tool for analysis of … widespread use of CGE modeling probably is that a CGE model is an ideal bridge between economic theory and applied policy … research. The “bridge” perspective, however, suggests that CGE modeling is a way of using rather than testing economic theory …
