Stranded assets, the social cost of carbon, and directed technical change: macroeconomic dynamics of optimal climate policy by Van der Ploeg, R, Rezai, A

“…The tractable general equilibrium model developed by Golosov et al. (2014), GHKT for short, is modified to allow for stock-dependent fossil fuel extraction costs and partial exhaustion of fossil fuel reserves, a negative impact of global warming on growth, mean reversion in climate damages, steady labour-augmenting technical progress, specific green technical progress driven by learning by doing, population growth, and a direct effect of the stock of atmospheric carbon on instantaneous welfare. …”

The Impact of Local Climate Policy on District Heating Development in a Nordic city – a Dynamic Approach by Karl Vilén, Sujeetha Selvakkumaran, Erik O. Ahlgren

“…Given that the development of a district heating (DH) system under dynamic and different climate policies and climate goals is a nontrivial problem, this study investigates two different policies of phasing out fossil fuels, either by introducing a fossil fuel ban, or by increasing the carbon tax to phase out the fossil fuel use in 2030 or 2045. …”
