    Experiences in real-world pollution markets suggest that firms make persistent errors in forecasting allowance and credit prices that inform their investment decisions. The residual uncertainty characterizing allowance and credit trading means that pollution markets may fail to deliver cost-effective abatement. This contrasts with price-based policies under which firms make investments that equate marginal abatement cost to an emission tax. We incorporate the additional cost of forecast errors under quantity-based programs into a standard Weitzman-style prices versus quantities framework. We distinguish between individual firms' uncertainty over competitors' private information and systemic uncertainty over future cost shocks. We show that a welfare-maximizing regulator would favor price instruments in response to the prospect of firm-specific forecast errors under quantity instruments, ceteris paribus, and the relative benefit of price instruments increases with forecast error variance. We discuss the role of policy design, such as incorporating price collars, in mitigating cost-inefficiencies from price forecast errors

    Decarbonization and electrification will require a transformed electricity grid. Our long-run model of entry and exit of generation and storage capacity captures crucial aspects of the electricity industry such as time-varying demand for electricity, intermittency of renewables, and intertemporal optimization of storage. We derive several theoretical possibilities that differ in surprising ways from short-run intuition: A carbon tax can increase electricity consumption; cheaper storage can decrease renewable capacity; cheaper renewables can increase carbon emissions; and an increase in electricity demand (e.g., electrification) can decrease emissions. We calibrate the model using 2019 hourly data on demand and renewable availability for thirteen regions covering the contiguous U.S. A carbon price of $150 or more essentially eliminates carbon emissions. Given a modest decarbonization goal, a renewable subsidy performs better than a nuclear subsidy, but this ranking is reversed for an ambitious decarbonization goal. Transmission expansion yields large emissions reductions if renewable costs fall sufficiently, but policies promoting storage are unlikely to yield significant benefits. Electrifying 100% of car miles traveled (thereby eliminating gasoline vehicle carbon emissions) increases electricity-sector carbon emissions by 23-27% if vehicles are charged at night, but could decrease electricity-sector carbon emissions if vehicles are charged during the day

    This paper asserts that reporting of the ratio of welfare gains to tax revenue should be standard protocol in economic analyses of externality correcting taxes. That this comparison might matter is somewhat of a "blind spot" in most economic analyses, for it plays virtually no role when economists recommend taxes to internalize externalities. A simple model illustrates how the ratio of welfare gains to tax revenue plays a central role in a political economy and efficiency framing of Pigouvian type taxes. The analysis also shows intuitive results about how the ratio is increasing in the marginal external costs and the equilibrium elasticity to a tax. The second part of the paper illustrates the wide range of potential results with application of carbon taxes to different fuels in the United States. For example, assuming a social cost of carbon (SCC) and a carbon tax equal to $50 per tonne, the central estimates imply ratios of 12.1 for coal, 0.36 for natural gas, and very close to zero for diesel and gasoline. When all four fuels are combined, the ratios indicate a more proportional balance between welfare gains and tax revenue, with overall estimates ranging between 0.7 and 2.8. The paper concludes with a general appeal for economists to pay more attention to the relative magnitudes of efficiency gains and tax revenue when analyzing and advocating for externality correcting taxes

    The economic effects of climate change vary across both time and space. To study these effects, this paper builds a global economy-climate model featuring a high degree of geographic resolution. Carbon emissions from the use of energy in production increase the Earth's (average) temperature and local, or regional, temperatures respond more or less sensitively to this increase. Each of the approximately 19,000 regions makes optimal consumption-savings and energy-use decisions as its climate (or regional temperature) and, consequently, its productivity change over time. The relationship between regional temperature and regional productivity has an inverted U-shape, calibrated so that the high-resolution model replicates estimates of aggregate global damages from global warming. At the global level, then, the high-resolution model nests standard one-region economy-climate models, while at the same time it features realistic spatial variation in climate and economic activity. The central result is that the effects of climate change vary dramatically across space---with many regions gaining while others lose---and the global average effects, while negative, are dwarfed quantitatively by the differences across space. A tax on carbon increases average (global) welfare, but there is a large disparity of views on it across regions, with both winners and losers. Climate change also leads to large increases in global inequality, across both regions and countries. These findings vary little as capital markets range from closed (autarky) to open (free capital mobility)

    In diesem Vorhaben wurden Optionen für die Besteuerung von Produkten ausgearbeitet. Gegenstände der Betrachtungen sind eine umweltorientierte Mehrwertsteuer sowohl innerhalb des gegebenen europäischen Rechtsrahmens als auch möglichen Änderungen des EU-Rechts; sowie Verbrauchsteuern und weitere produktbezogene ökonomische Instrumente. Im Fokus dieses Berichts stehen Verbrauchsteuern, die das Potential haben, den Überkonsum knapper Ressourcen zu verringern, Emissionen und Abfälle zu reduzieren und ökonomische Anreize zu geben für das Recycling von Produkten zur Rückgewinnung von Rohstoffen. Neben Steuern werden im Rahmen der Analysen auch andere produktbezogene ökonomische Instrumente wie Pfandsysteme oder die Ausweitung der Herstellerverantwortung thematisiert. In der deutschen Finanzverfassung sind Verbrauchsteuern eng gefasst. Sie müssen sich regelmäßig auf "Güter des ständigen privaten Bedarfs" beziehen. Hier vorgestellte Optionen für Verbrauchsteuern mit ökologischer Lenkungswirkung sind z. B. eine Verbrauchsteuer auf Zement gekoppelt mit Klimaschutzverträgen für weitgehend klimaneutralen Zement, die Befreiung nachhaltigen Kaffees von der Kaffeesteuer und eine Steuer auf Tragetaschen. Weitere ökonomische Instrumente, die untersucht wurden, sind eine Bepreisung von Flugfracht im Rahmen einer Flugfrachtsteuer, die Kostenübertragung auf Hersteller von Einwegkunststoffprodukten im Rahmen der erweiterten Herstellerverantwortung oder ein Pfand auf Lithium-Ionen-Akkus. Zusätzliche Handlungsspielräume, um durch ökonomische Instrumente eine ökologische Steuerungswirkung zu erreichen, könnten durch eine Änderung der finanzverfassungsrechtlichen Vorgaben des Grundgesetzes erschlossen werden - z.B. indem "Umweltabgaben" oder "Abgaben auf Emissionen" ausdrücklich zugelassen werden. Die Mehrwertsteuer und Verbrauchsteuern können vor allem ökologische Wirkungen beim privaten Konsum erzielen. Umweltwirkungen der Produktion können nur indirekt und unpräzise adressiert werden. Hersteller sind durch die Konsumveränderung nur mittelbar betroffen, nicht jedoch in ihrer Wettbewerbsposition gegenüber ausländischen Anbietern. Eine nationale Einführung ist eher möglich und kann Impulse für weiterreichende internationale Initiativen geben. In this project, options for the taxation of products were elaborated, looking at an environmentally oriented value-added tax both within the existing European legal framework and possible changes to EU law; as well as excise duties and other product-related economic instruments. The focus of this report is on excise duties, which have the potential to lower the overconsumption of scarce resources, reduce emissions and waste, and provide economic incentives for the recycling of products to recapture raw materials. In addition to taxes, the analyses also address other product-related economic instruments such as deposit systems or the expansion of producer responsibility. In the German fiscal constitution, excise taxes are narrowly defined. They must regularly refer to"goods of permanent private use". Options for excise taxes with an ecological steering effect are, for example, an excise tax on cement coupled with climate protection contracts for largely climate-neutral cement, the exemption of sustainable coffee from coffee tax and a tax on carrier bags. Other economic instruments that have been examined are a pricing of air freight within the framework of an air freight tax, the transfer of costs to manufacturers of single-use plastic products within the framework of extended producer responsibility or a deposit on lithium-ion batteries. Additional room for manoeuvre to achieve an ecological steering effect through economic instruments could be opened up by amending the financial constitutional requirements of the Basic Law - e. g., by explicitly allowing "environmental levies" or "levies on emissions". Value-added tax and excise duties can primarily achieve environmental effects in private consumption. Environmental impacts on production can only be addressed indirectly and somewhat imprecisely. Manufacturers are only indirectly affected by the change in consumption, but not in their competitive position vis-à-vis foreign suppliers. A national introduction is more feasible and can provide impulses for more far-reaching international initiatives.

    Climate policies vary widely across countries, with some countries imposing stringent emissions policies and others doing very little. When climate policies vary across countries, energy-intensive industries have an incentive to relocate to places with few or no emissions restrictions, an effect known as leakage. Relocated industries would continue to pollute but would be operating in a less desirable location. We consider solutions to the leakage problem in a simple setting where one region of the world imposes a climate policy and the rest of the world is passive. We solve the model analytically and also calibrate and simulate the model. Our model and analysis imply: (1) optimal climate policies tax both the supply of fossil fuels and the demand for fossil fuels; (2) on the demand side, absent administrative costs, optimal policies would tax both the use of fossil fuels in domestic production and the domestic consumption of goods created with fossil fuels, but with the tax rate on production lower due to leakage; (3) taxing only production (on the demand side), however, would be substantially simpler, and almost as effective as taxing both production and consumption, because it would avoid the need for border adjustments on imports of goods; (4) the effectiveness of the latter strategy depends on a low foreign elasticity of energy supply, which means that forming a taxing coalition to ensure a low foreign elasticity of energy supply can act as a substitute for border adjustments on goods

    We categorize the primary incentive-based mechanisms under consideration for addressing greenhouse gas emissions from electricity generation--pricing carbon, setting intensity standards, and subsidizing clean energy--and compare their market outcomes under similar expansions of clean electricity generation. While pricing emissions gives strong incentives to first eliminate generation with the highest social cost, a clean energy standard incentivizes earliest phaseout of the generation with the highest private cost. We show that the importance of this distinction depends on the correlation between private costs and emissions rates. We then estimate this correlation for US electricity generation and fuel prices as of 2019. The results indicate that the emissions difference between a carbon tax and clean energy standard that phase out fossil fuel generation over the same timeframe may actually be quite small, though it depends on fossil fuel prices during the phaseout. We also discuss how each of these policy options is likely to impact electricity prices, quantity demanded, government revenue, and economic efficiency. Large pre-existing markups of retail electricity prices over marginal costs are likely to considerably weaken or even reverse the usual assumed efficiency advantage of carbon pricing policies over alternatives, including direct subsidization of clean electricity generation

    This paper applies principles of adverse selection to overcome obstacles that prevent the implementation of Pigouvian policies to internalize externalities. Focusing on negative externalities from production (such as pollution), we consider settings in which aggregate emissions are known, but individual contributions are unobserved by the government. We evaluate a policy that gives firms the option to pay a tax on their voluntarily and verifiably disclosed emissions, or pay an output tax based on the average rate of emissions among the undisclosed firms. The certification of relatively clean firms raises the output-based tax, setting off a process of unraveling in favor of disclosure. We derive sufficient statistics formulas to calculate the welfare of such a program relative to mandatory output or emissions taxes. We find that the voluntary certification mechanism would deliver significant gains over output-based taxation in two empirical applications: methane emissions from oil and gas fields, and carbon emissions from imported steel

    We construct carbon footprints from households' expenditure and employ the EASI demand system to simulate the distributional and environmental effects of a introducing a 'green VAT' in Ireland. For our analysis, we combine expenditure data from the Irish Household Budget Survey with data on consumption-based emissions. We consider three scenarios: one with no recycling mechanism for additional tax revenue, one with a five per cent higher state transfers and one with an income tax cut. In all scenarios, the existing VAT system is replaced by a combination of a uniform base rate of four per cent and a strong carbon tax component. The policy leads to a reduction in emissions from households of roughly 6 per cent. We find that households' footprints are strongly driven by expenditure on energy and transport. Average emissions footprints are higher for high-expenditure quartiles. We also find that while the tax leads to welfare drops for all households, especially those at the lower end of the distribution of household expenditure, the combined carbon tax and transfer increase are protecting at least the lowest two deciles of the expenditure distribution from the adverse welfare effects. The income tax cut limits the reduction in working hours present in the other two scenarios. Both revenue recycle mechanisms weaken the reduction in emissions.
