We study theoretically and numerically the effects of an environmental tax reform using endogenous growth theory. In the theoretical part, mobile labor between manufacturing and R&D activities, and elasticity of substitution between labor and energy in manufacturing lower than unity allow for a...

Study for the European Environmental Agency, Copenhagen "Tax reform in Europe over the next decades: implication for the environment, for eco-innovation and for household distribution" Task A: Eco-innovation Literature review on eco-innovation and ETR Modelling of ETR impacts with GINFORS

We formulate and estimate a general equilibrium model of innovation-led growth and use it to evaluate the quantitative implications of individual income tax reforms for innovation and aggregate productivity growth. In the model, innovation comes from entrants creating new products and incumbents...
