E4S Center2021Catalyst design for the transformation of CO2 into value-added products.
The mass-utilization of fossil resources has led to a dramatic increase in carbon dioxide (CO2) production, most of which is released directly into the Earth's atmosphere, resulting in global warming. Efforts to contain CO2 emissions and to capture, store ...
EPFL2018Green taxes in a post-Paris world: are millions of nays inevitable?
Philippe Thalmann, Andrea Baranzini
Turning greenhouse gas emissions pledges into domestic policies is the next challenge for governments. We address the question of the acceptability of cost-effective climate policy in a real-voting setting. First, we analyze voting behavior in a large ball ...
Centre for Climate Change Economics and Policy2016Alkynylation with Hypervalent Iodine Reagents
Alkynes are among the most versatile functional groups in organic synthesis. They are also frequently used in chemical biology and materials science. Whereas alkynes are traditionally added as nucleophiles into organic molecules, hypervalent iodine reagent ...
Springer Verlag2015Low Power Wake-up Receiver
With more devices becoming mobile, power consumption of communication becomes crucial. Wake-up receivers present an energy-ecient way of detecting incoming transmissions while at the same time the main radio can be fully powered down. After detection the r ...
2014Trade policy: Home market effect versus terms-of-trade externality
We study trade policy in a two-sector Krugman (1980) trade model, allowing for wage, import and export subsidies/taxes. We study non-cooperative trade policies, first for each individual instrument and then for the situation where all instruments can be se ...
Elsevier2014Impact of biofuels production on land-use change and greenhouse gas emissions
This research assesses the effect of greenhouse gas (GHG) emission constraints imposed in biofuel importing countries on the export potential of biofuel producing countries. Several countries are promoting the introduction of biofuels on their energy matri ...
EPFL2012A Global Carbon Tax to Compensate Damage and Adaptation Costs
Philippe Thalmann, Marc Vielle, Juan Carlos Altamirano Cabrera
We analyze the implications of a global carbon tax on CO2 to finance the damage and adaptation costs of developing countries (DCs) using the computable general equilibrium model GEMINI-E3. We considered two options, first, that the tax is only applied to i ...
NCCR Climate2010Trade Policy: Home Market Effect vs Terms of Trade Externality
We study trade policy in a two-sector Krugman-type trade model with home market effects. We allow for three different instruments: tariffs, export taxes and production subsidies. For each instrument, we consider unilateral trade policy without retaliation. ...
