Preferential feed-in tariffs (FITs) for solar generated electricity increases the demand for solar photovoltaic systems. They can thus induce price to increase, creating the potential for PV systems producers to collect rents. This paper analyses the interactions between feed-in tariffs, silicon...

En adoptant le point de vue du régulateur, nous cherchons à répondre aux questions suivantes : quel est le rôle des AV aujourd'hui dans un contexte où les firmes s'engagent dans la RSE ? RSE et AV sont-ils des substituts ou des compléments du point de vue de la puissance publique ? Quelle...

The paper analyzes the efficiency of extended producer responsibility (EPR) for waste management. We consider a vertically differentiated duopoly where endogenous market quality affects waste disposal costs. Each producer has to meet a take-back requirement that forces it to collect and treat...

Except in few locations, photovoltaic generated electricity remains considerably more expensive than conventional sources. It is however expected that innovation and learning-bydoing will lead to drastic cuts in production cost in the near future. The goal of this paper is to predict the cost of...

Cette étude cherche à mesurer l'effet sur les prix de l'immobilier des politiques " quartiers verts " et " quartiers tranquilles " de la Mairie de Paris. Ces deux politiques mises en oeuvre à partir de 1994 modifient l'aménagement de la voie publique dans 67 quartiers afin d'opérer un...

Cet article propose une analyse statistique du positionnement et de la performance de la France en matière de technologies de lutte contre le réchauffement climatique. La méthodologie s'appuie sur une base de données décrivant l'ensemble des dépôts de brevets entre 1980 et 2008 dans 17...

This paper examines the relative influence of domestic and foreign renewable energy policies on innovation activity in wind power using patent data from OECD countries from 1994 to 2005. We distinguish between the impact of demand-pull policies (e.g., guaranteed tariffs, investment and...
