We show how policies to trigger clean technologies change price competition and market structure. We present evidence from electricity markets, where regulators have implemented different policies to subsidize clean energy. Building on a multi-unit auction model, we show that currently applied...

Der Beitrag diskutiert, wie groß die Chancen sind, dass im Rahmen der Ende November in Paris stattfindenden Weltklimakonferenz ein neues Klimaschutzabkommen verabschiedet wird.

Der Beitrag gibt einen Überblick über die Chancen und Risiken des Klimawandels für die Bevölkerung und Anrainerstaaten der Arktis.

Electricity markets are prone to the abuse of market power. Several US markets employ algorithms to monitor and mitigate market power abuse in real time. The performance of automated mitigation procedures is contingent on precise estimates of firms' marginal production costs. Currently, marginal...

Some electricity markets use automated mitigation procedures against market power abuse. This requires marginal cost estimates, which have to be derived from observed auction bids. Current stimation procedures can be improved by using available auction data more systematically. Our redesign...
