Double limit pricing

Meijden, Gerard van der; Ryszka, Karolina; Withagen, Cees - 2015

We study resource extraction by a non-renewable resource supplier who faces demand from two regions, one of which employs a tax on the imported resource and a subsidy on the available backstop technology, and one that has no environmental policy in place. The resource extraction path possibly...

Subsidizing human capital to overcome the green paradox : a demand-side approach

Steinkraus, Arne - 2016

This paper shifts the perspective of the recent green paradox literature towards the demand side. Based on a simple model, I show that a subsidy on input factors in a Cobb-Douglas production function may contribute substantially to postponing resource extraction into the future and, thereby, to...

Carbon pricing under binding political constraints

Jenkins, Jesse D.; Karplus, Valerie J. - Joint Institute for Strategic Energy Analysis - 2016

The economic prescription for climate change is clear: price carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gas emissions to internalize climate damages. In practice, a variety of political economy constraints prevent the introduction of a carbon price equal to the full social cost of emissions. This...

The social cost of carbon and inequality : when local redistribution shapes global carbon prices

Kornek, Ulrike; Klenert, David; Edenhofer, Ottmar; … - 2019

The social cost of carbon is the central economic measure for aggregate climate change damages and functions as a metric for optimal carbon prices. Previous literature shows that inequality significantly influences the level of the social cost of carbon, but mostly neglects a major source of...

Pigou pushes preferences : decarbonisation and endogenous values

Mattauch, Linus; Hepburn, Cameron; Stern, Nicholas H. - 2018

Avoiding unmanageable climate change implies that global greenhouse gas emissions must be reduced rapidly. A significant body of literature shows that policy instruments such as carbon prices can make an important contribution to this goal. In contrast, changes in preferences or values are...

Cash transfers for pro-poor carbon taxes in Latin America and the Caribbean

Vogt-Schilb, Adrien; Walsh, Brian; Feng, Kuishuang; Di … - 2019

Carbon taxes are advocated as efficient fiscal and environmental policies, but they have proven difficult to implement. One reason is that carbon taxes can aggravate poverty by increasing prices of basic goods and services such as food, heating, and commuting. Meanwhile, cash transfer programs...
