The European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS) has aimed to encourage the development of low-carbon technologies by putting a price on carbon emissions. Using a newly constructed data set that links 8.5 million European companies with their patenting history and their regulatory status...

Die ausreichende und beständige Verfügbarkeit von Energie ist für hoch entwickelte Industrieländer eine unabdingbare Voraussetzung für ihre wirtschaftliche Entwicklung. Das gilt für alle Bereiche einer modernen Volkswirtschaft, angefangen vom Produktionssektor über den Transport- und den...

Carbon leakage is an issue of major interest in both academic and policy debates about the effectiveness of unilateral climate policy addressing global externalities. The debate is particularly salient in Europe, where the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) covers emissions of many traded...

We examine the causal impact of carbon pricing on aviation supply exploiting a policy change in the European Emissions Trading system (EU ETS). Our econometric approach is based on a matched differences-in-differences strategy. We find that low-cost airlines end up supplying 7% fewer seats than...

Under the European Union Emissions Trading System (EU ETS), operators must surrender allowances corresponding to the emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) from their installations. The supply of allowances in the EU ETS decreases linearly and, all else equal, is expected to end around 2057. An...

This paper introduces a new method for measuring financial market efficiency: the so- called intermittency coefficient, a parameter of the multifractal random walk model by Bacry et al. (2001). As the intermittency coefficient can quantify the degree of nonlinear deviation from a random walk, we...

In this work we update the regionalization and the calibration of the Regional dynamic Integrated model of Climate and the Economy (RICE) in its 1999 version developed by Nordhaus and Boyer (2000), with a focus on the Mediterranean countries. Our aim is to assess the impact of climate change...
