This study examines the roles of revenue recycling schemes for the selection of alternative tax instruments (i.e., carbon-, sulphur-, energy- and output-tax) to reduce CO2 emissions to a specified level in Thailand. A static, single period, multi-sectoral computable general equilibrium (CGE)...

There is a growing interest in using carbon taxes to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, not only in industrialized economies but also in developing economies. Many countries have considered carbon pricing, including carbon taxes, as policy instruments to meet their emission reduction targets set...

There is an urgent need to mitigate global warming for all countries around the world. The People’s Republic of China (PRC) has announced a series of energy and climate policy targets in contributing its efforts toward meeting the ambitious goals in the Paris Agreement and the newly pledged...
