Second-best renewable subsidies to de-carbonize the economy : commitment and the green paradox
Rezai, Armon; Ploeg, Frederick van der - 2016 - Revised January 2016
Climate change must deal with two market failures: global warming and learning by doing in renewable use. The first-best policy consists of an aggressive renewables subsidy in the near term and a gradually rising and falling carbon tax. Given that global carbon taxes remain elusive, policy...

Analysis of carbon mitigation policies: feed-in tariffs, energy and carbon price interactions and competitive distortions on carbon markets
Johanna Reichenbach - 2011
I study several policy instruments for carbon mitigation with a focus on subsidies for renewable energies, emission taxes and emission allowances. In Chapter 1, I analyze the optimal design and the welfare implications of two policies consisting of an emission tax for conventional fossil-fuel...

Abandoning Fossil Fuel: How Fast And How Much?
Rezai, Armon; van der Ploeg, Frederick - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2014
Climate change must deal with two market failures, global warming and learning by doing in renewable use. The social optimum requires an aggressive renewables subsidy in the near term and a gradually rising carbon tax which falls in long run. As a result, more renewables are used relative to...

Testing the prebisch-Singer Hypothesis Since 1650: Evidence from panel techniques that allow for multiple breaks
Arezki, Rabah; Hadri, Kaddour; Loungani, Prakash; Rao, Yao - Oxford Centre for the Analysis of Resource-Rich … - 2014
In this paper, we re-examine two important aspects of the dynamics of relative primary commodity prices, namely the secular trend and the short run volatility. To do so, we employ 25 series, some of them starting as far back as 1650 and powerful panel data stationarity tests that allow for...
