Efficient Climate Policies under Technology and Climate Uncertainty
This article explores efficient climate policies in terms of investment streams into fossil and renewable energy technologies. The investment decisions maximise social welfare while observing a probabilistic guardrail for global mean temperature rise under uncertain technology and climate parameters. Such a guardrail constitutes a chance constraint, and the resulting optimisation problem is an ...
متن کاملModeling irrigated agricultural production and water use decisions under water supply uncertainty
[1] Farmers make joint water and land use decisions for economic purposes based in part on water availability and reliability. A two-stage economic production model is developed to examine the effects of hydrologic uncertainty and water prices on agricultural production, cropping patterns, and water and irrigation technology use. The model maximizes net expected farm profit from permanent and a...
متن کاملIntegrating development and climate policies
CLIMATE POLICY 8 (2008) 99–102 Social and economic development is strongly related to climate change. It is now well established that climate change and its impacts can have a very negative influence on people and their economies, for example on agriculture or in areas vulnerable to droughts and floods. The livelihoods of the poor, young and elderly will be most seriously undermined by extreme ...
متن کاملMultiple Agents, and Agricultural Nonpoint-Source Water Pollution Control Policies
Assuming asymmetric information over farmer profits and zero transaction costs, prior literature has suggested that when regulating nonpoint source water pollution, a tax on management practices (inputs) can implement full-information allocations and is superior to a tax on estimated runoff. Using mechanism design theory under asymmetric information, this paper shows that under the same assumpt...
متن کاملReliable water supply system design under uncertainty
Given the natural variability and uncertainties in long-term predictions, reliability is a critical design factor for water supply systems. However, the large scale of the problem and the correlated nature of the involved uncertainties result in models that are often intractable. In this paper, we consider a municipal water supply system over a 15-year planning period with initial infrastructur...
