This paper provides a detailed, cross-model analysis and discussion of the implications of carbon tax scenarios on changes in sectoral output, energy production and consumption and the competitiveness of the United States' economy.

We identify how variations in carbon tax trajectories and different options for using the revenue from the tax drive these results.
