Are green hopes too rosy? Employment and welfare impacts of renewable energy promotion

Böhringer, Christoph; Keller, Andreas; van der Werf, Edwin - In: Energy Economics 36 (2013) C, pp. 277-285

In view of pressing unemployment problems, policy makers across all parties jump on the prospects of renewable energy promotion as a job creation engine which can boost economic well-being. Our analytical model shows that initial labor market rigidities in theory provide some scope for such a...

Synergy between pollution and carbon emissions control: Comparing China and the United States

Nam, Kyung-Min; Waugh, Caleb J.; Paltsev, Sergey; … - In: Energy Economics 46 (2014) C, pp. 186-201

We estimate the potential synergy between pollution and climate control in the U.S. and China, summarizing the results as emissions cross-elasticities of control. In both countries, ancillary carbon reductions resulting from SO2 and NOx control tend to rise with the increased stringency of...

Implementing a load duration curve of electricity demand in a general equilibrium model

Wiskich, Anthony - In: Energy Economics 45 (2014) C, pp. 373-380

Top-down computable general equilibrium models of energy–economy interactions have a limited representation of the electricity sector, typically using constant elasticities of substitution between generation types. Detailed bottom-up electricity models generally have embedded load duration...

Decomposing the impact of alternative technology sets on future carbon emissions growth

Fisher-Vanden, Karen; Schu, Kathryn; Sue Wing, Ian; … - In: Energy Economics 34 (2012) S3, pp. 359-359

What are the drivers of future global carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions growth and how would the availability of key energy supply technologies change their relative importance? In this paper, we apply a novel index number decomposition technique to the results of a multi-region, multi-sector...
