The impact of carbon taxation and revenue recycling on U.S. industries
Macaluso, N., Tuladhar, S., Woollacott, J., Mcfarland, J. R., Creason, J., & Cole, J. (2018). The impact of carbon taxation and revenue recycling on U.S. industries. Climate Change Economics, 9(1), Article 1840005. https://doi.org/10.1142/S2010007818400055
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. Our analysis focuses on the broad patterns apparent across models in both qualitative and quantitative terms at the sector level, with a focus on energy-intensive, trade-exposed sectors. We identify how variations in carbon tax trajectories and different options for using the revenue from the tax drive these results.
