DOI: 10.1016/j.eneco.2020.104958
Abstract: Abstract Policy simulation results of Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) models largely hinge on the choices of substitution elasticities among key input factors. Currently, most CGE models rely on the common elasticities estimated from aggregated data,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jclepro.2018.06.292
Abstract: Abstract There is much discussion about whether the rapid expansion of onshore wind power in China is sustainable, given the decrease in feed-in tariffs (FIT). It is unclear whether the recently launched nationwide carbon pricing… read more here.
