The Distributional Effects of Environmental Policy

The aim of this seminar is to familiarize students with the state of the art approach to quantitative empirical research on the distributional effects of climate policy. Learning is designed around the discussion of a specific empirical paper published in a leading economics journal and shall facilitate (i) conducting own research in the master thesis and (ii) understanding and judging other peoples’ research. Topics include

  • the incidence of taxes, such as carbon pricing, and various non-tax regulations, such as subsidies or energy efficiency standards;
  • the political economy implications of redistributions within and across income groups, including challenges for compensation mechanisms;
  • the behavioral economics insights on the public support of climate policy reforms;
  • the distribution of (co-)benefits from climate policy, such as clean air from EV subsidies.
