General Equilibrium Rebound from Energy Efficiency Policies ∗
I study the general equilibrium implications of large-scale policies to improve energy efficiency, which are being implemented around the world to mitigate climate change. Energy efficiency policies “rebound” when economic responses undercut their direct energy savings. I develop an analytic general equilibrium framework that allows improvements in energy efficiency to affect output prices and ...
متن کاملA General Equilibrium Model of Age-Specific Employment Policies∗
Many countries around the world are simultaneously experiencing an aging labor force, sharp reductions in the labor force participation rates of older workers, and high unemployment among younger workers. In response, some governments have encouraged early retirement by the elderly to free up jobs for the young, while others have adopted policies that promote old-age labor force participation. ...
متن کاملA general equilibrium analysis of parental leave policies by
Despite mandatory parental-leave policies being a prevalent feature of labor markets in developed countries, the aggregate effects of leave policies are not well understood. In order to assess the quantitative impact of mandated leave policies in the economy, we develop a general-equilibrium model of fertility and labor-market decisions that builds on the labor market framework of Mortensen and...
متن کاملModeling Biofuels Policies in General Equilibrium: Insights, Pitfalls and Opportunities
Over the past decade, biofuels production in the EU and US has boomed – much of this due to government mandates and subsidies. The US has now surpassed Brazil as the world’s leading producer of ethanol. The economic and environmental impact of these biofuel programs has become an important question of public policy. Due to the complex intersectoral linkages between biofuels and crops, livestock...
متن کاملMarginal Abatement Cost Curves in General Equilibrium: The Influence of World Energy Prices
Marginal abatement cost curves (MACCs) are a favorite instrument to analyze international emissions trading. This paper focusses on the question of how to define MACCs in a general equilibrium context where the global abatement level influences energy prices and in turn national MACCs. We discuss the mechanisms theoretically and then use the CGE model DART for quantitative simulations. The resu...
