  • Public Finance Options for Recycling Carbon Tax Revenue in Germany

    Frederick Van Der Ploeg, Armon Rezai et al.ARTICLEFinanzArchiv2024

    We use a micro simulation model for Germany to show that it is optimal to use part of carbon tax revenue for handing out climate dividends, part to lower income taxes, and part to make up for public revenue shortfalls. The optimal recycling mix is tilted towards climate dividends away from tax reductions as relative inequality aversion increases. For baseline inequality aversion, up to half of carbon tax revenue is used to fund climate dividends …

  • Looking beyond energy efficiency and the role of financial literacy in experiencing fuel poverty

    Open AccessMiguel Angel Tovar Reaños, John Curtis et al.ARTICLEEnergy Research & Social Science2024Cited by: 3References: 3

    Previous research has established that an effective way to fight fuel poverty is to increase levels of energy efficiency in residential buildings. A different strand of research has shown that the adoption of energy efficiency measures is more likely if people have high financial literacy. We combine these two strands of research by conducting a new survey among Irish homeowners and directly analysing the association between financial literacy an…

  • The benefits of action on implementing carbon taxation in Ireland

    Miguel Angel Tovar Reaños, Muireann Á LynchARTICLEJournal of Environmental Planning…2023

    We employ the Affine Stone Index demand system and Irish data to quantify the distributional effects of additional carbon taxes, taking into account the monetary benefits of action. We estimated the avoided economic damages from climate change, and the monetary value of the avoided emissions using willingness to pay from the literature. When these benefits of action are included in the metric for tax incidence, the tax burden decreases considerab…

  • Trends in household demand and greenhouse gas footprints in Germany

    Open AccessAnke Jacksohn, Miguel Angel Tovar Reaños et al.ARTICLEEcological Economics2023Cited by: 3References: 2

    This paper quantifies changes in the trend of greenhouse gas footprints associated with household consumption covering a period of 20 years. We combine greenhouse gas emissions related to the supply chain (embedded) and consumption (direct) with households' consumption expenditures from the sample survey of income and expenditure (EVS), and present the first comprehensive study on trends in greenhouse gas footprints of German households. We find …

  • Are fuel poverty metrics fit for purpose? An assessment using behavioural microsimulation

    Open AccessMiguel Angel Tovar Reaños, Muireann Á LynchARTICLESustainable Cities and Society2022

    This paper contributes to the literature on fuel poverty measurement by analysing the ability of different metrics to identify fuel poor households. We consider existing expenditure-based metrics and recently-developed metrics for multidimensional poverty, and compare three aspects: (a) Their ability to identify households at high risk of experiencing fuel poverty, (b) their ability to identify low income households with a large carbon tax burden…
