This paper develops and estimates a small open-economy environmental DSGE model tailored to the UK to analyze the macroeconomic effects of carbon taxes and green subsidies. It incorporates carbon externality, trade structure, and firm-level…

Kim H.

This paper proposes an integrative economic framework incorporating the Emission Trading Scheme (ETS) for U.S. residential energy systems. It provides policy insights for decarbonizing the residential sector.

Li H.

This paper analyzes cooperative decision-making among competing supply chains under a carbon trading mechanism. It investigates how emissions trading affects cooperation and competition between supply chains, revealing the impact of carbon …

Park S.

This study empirically analyzes the impact of the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) on waste and scrap utilization in the steel industry and discusses policy implications. It finds that CBAM may promote scrap use in steel production…

Using panel data from 18 African nations (2000–2020), this study finds that carbon pricing only reduces emissions above a GDP per capita threshold, technology adoption paradoxically increases emissions, while urbanization and biodiversity c…

Jiangjiang Wu, Junrui Chai, Yuan Qin +1

This study evaluates the lifecycle carbon reduction potential and economic value of pumped storage in a multi-energy complementary system within China's CCER framework. Using a PSO-optimized fractional-order gray model to forecast carbon pr…

SUI Quan, WANG Zhongyuan, ZHANG Chuanqing, LIAO Wei, LI Qionglin, ZHANG Di

This paper proposes a coordinated scheduling strategy for distribution networks and microgrids considering multi-resource trading of energy, reserve, and carbon emissions. It establishes an asymmetric microgrid alliance framework and a Stac…

Shaodong Li, Yongqing Liu

This study evaluates China's carbon emissions trading policy's impact on manufacturing firms' green transformation using a multi-period DID model on A-share listed firms from 2011-2021. Results show significant promotion of green transforma…

Ao Yue, J Chen, Yana Di +1

This study analyzes the impact of China's carbon emission trading rights (CETR) pilots on enterprise upgrading (measured by the New Quality Productive Forces index) using panel data from 2011-2023 on A-share listed firms. Using a staggered …

Zhao H.

This paper analyzes how the EU's stringent climate policy, particularly the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), may exacerbate inequality within the Union. It examines the negative spillover effects on low-income groups and specific …

Caparrós A.

This paper analyzes the impact of emissions trading on technology adoption and output under international competition. It highlights that labor market rigidity increases adjustment costs, potentially weakening technology adoption effects. P…
