Berlin Seminar on Energy and Climate Policy

Recent developments in electricity markets have prompted renewed interest over the role of energy storage technology. Storage can provide various benefits for the functioning of an electrical grid, including system stability in times of electric interruption, help in meeting peak demand, the deferral or avoidance of adding or updating grid infrastructure, aiding the integration of variable ...

A recent study by Vivid Economics on "Carbon taxation and fiscal consolidation in Europe" analyses the macro-economic impacts of different taxes in tackling the fiscal deficit. The study shows that carbon pricing is less detrimental than other tax options, as it encourages the substitution of fuel imports with local investment. Building on experience with the implementation of emissions ...
