La chaire Énergie et Prospérité et le Cired organisent, à l'occasion de la sortie du livre Un nouveau contrat écologique d'Emmanuel Combet et d'Antonin Pottier, un débat avec les deux auteurs ainsi que Marc Fleurbaey et Thierry Pech.
The distribution of the footprint within a country is regularly computed using consumption data, and with the assumption that the footprint from a product category is proportional to the spending on that product. Here, we explore the limitations of this proportionality assumption.
Since the early 2000s, the public debate has gradually filled with normative proposals aimed at tackling the two-way climate finance challenge (how finance impacts climate stability and how finance can be impacted by climate change) – the “climate finance agenda”. Yet, although parts of this agenda are already discussed by the literature, scholars still lack an overview of the prescriptions that compose this agenda and of their underlying narratives. This article addresses this gap.
Cette thèse met en évidence les relations complexes entre électrification, déforestation et développement économique dans les pays en développement.
In September 2020, the city of Bogotá introduced a major market-based reform to its odd-even driving restriction. The big winners of the reform are middle-income individuals who now use their cars more often, whereas the big losers are high-income individuals who now spend more time in traffic.
L’ADEME organise un cycle d’ateliers auquel plusieurs chercheurs de la Chaire Énergie et Prospérité ont été conviés : Quentin Hoarau, Guy Meunier, Jean-Pierre Ponssard et Maria Eugenia Sanin.
Adopting disruptive technologies for decarbonizing hard-to-abate industrial sectors requires experimentation through demonstration (pilot) projects. However, from an economic perspective, the potential long-term benefits and the difficulties in designing relevant public policies are not addressed in the standard valuations of those projects.
Extracting, processing, and delivering energy requires energy itself, which reduces the net energy available to society and yields considerable socioeconomic implications. Yet, most mitigation pathways and transition models overlook net energy feedbacks.
The 2008 and Covid crises have led to increasing public debts and to the launching of unconventional economic policies. Thanks to a complete description of the balance sheets of the domestic and foreign agents, stock-flow consistent (SFC) modelling was well equipped to evaluate their economic consequences.
Using an empirical stock-flow consistent (SFC) model for the French economy, we simulate an imported inflationary shock to emulate the current inflation situation and analyze the resulting macroeconomic impacts on the French economy. Two possible responses are considered: increased wage per capita so as to preserve workers’ purchasing power, increased margins by firms in order to restore their profit share.
Le conflit au Moyen-Orient a rappelé le besoin d’accélérer la transition énergétique, mais le besoin d’investissements massifs concerne bien autres domaines. Comment les financer, alors que la pression sur les finances publiques s’accroît et que de nombreux projets ne sont pas assez rentables pour attirer spontanément les investisseurs privés ? Cette table-ronde réunira des experts...
