Decomposing integrated assessment climate change
Böhringer, Christoph (contributor);  … - 2005
We present a decomposition approach for integrated assessment modeling of climate policy based on a linear approximation of the climate system. Our objective is to demonstrate the usefulness of decomposition for integrated assessment models posed in a complementarity format. First, the...

Optimal abatement in dynamic multi-pollutant problems when pollutants can be complements or substitutes

We derive general … properties governing optimal emission paths and present numerical examples to illustrate our main results. In particular we find … that optimal emission paths need not be monotonic, even for highly symmetric pollutants. Finally, we describe a …

Economic development and Co2 Emissions : a nonpararmetric panel approach
Azomahou, Théophile (contributor);  … - 2005
We examine the empirical relation between CO2 emissions per capita and GDP per capita during the period 1960-1996, using a panel of 100 countries. Relying on the nonparametric poolability test of Baltagi et al. (1996), we find evidence of structural stability of the relationship. We then specify...

Energieeffizienz : eine neue Aufgabe für staatliche Regulierung?
Mennel, Tim (contributor); Sturm, Bodo (contributor) - 2008
Hinter der Forderung nach höherer Energieeffizienz stehen üblicherweise konkrete umwelt- und energiepolitische Ziele wie Klimaschutz, Versorgungssicherheit und Ressourcenschonung. Das vorliegende Papier analysiert diese Argumente und diskutiert mögliche Politikinstrumente zur Zielerreichung....
