R&D-driven biases in energy-saving technical change: A putty-practically-clay approach

van Zon, Adriaan; Lontzek, Thomas S. - 2008

This paper deals with the problem of tackling the adverse effect of output growth on environmental quality. For this purpose we use an intermediate sector that builds putty-practically-clay capital consisting of an amalgam of energy and raw capital used for final goods production. The...

Analysis of Technological Portfolios for CO₂ stabilizations and Effects of Technological Changes

Sano, Fuminori; Akimoto, Keigo; Homma, Takashi; Tomoda, … - 2005

In this study, cost-effective technological options to stabilize CO2 concentrations at 550, 500, and 450 ppmv are evaluated using a world energy systems model of linear programming with a high regional resolution. This model treats technological change endogenously for wind power, photovoltaics,...

The spatial diffusion of a knowledge base: Laser technology research in West Germany, 1960-2005

Fritsch, Michael; Medrano, Luis F. - 2010

We analyze the spatial diffusion of knowledge in laser technology in West Germany from 1960, when this technology began … of laser knowledge was especially prevalent in large agglomerations. While we cannot detect knowledge spillovers from … research later, indicating the accumulation of knowledge generated in previous periods. Our results highlight the role of a …

Skilled Scalable Services: The New Urban Bias in Economic Growth

Eckert, Fabian; Ganapati, Sharat; Walsh, Conor - 2020

Since 1980, economic growth in the U.S. has been fastest in its largest cities. We show that a group of skill- and information-intensive service industries are responsible for all of this new urban bias in recent growth. We then propose a simple explanation centered around the interaction of...

The City Paradox: Skilled Services and Remote Work

Althoff, Lukas; Eckert, Fabian; Ganapati, Sharat; … - 2020

The large cities in the US are the most expensive places to live. Paradoxically, this cost is disproportionately paid by workers who could work remotely, and live anywhere. The greater potential for remote work in large cities is mostly accounted for by their specialization in skill- and...

The Impact of Regional Absorptive Capacity on Spatial Knowledge Spillovers

Caragliu, Andrea; Nijkamp, Peter - 2008

on spatial knowledge spillovers. Regions produce new knowledge, but only part of it is efficiently adopted in the economy … that insufficient levels of territorial capital hamper the capability of regions to grasp and fully exploit new knowledge …. Results show that a lower regional absorptive capacity increases knowledge spillovers towards surrounding areas, hampering the …
