The economic impact of climate driven changes in water availability in Switzerland

Marc Vielle, Camille Gonseth, Anne-Kathrin Faust

The broad objective of this study is to estimate the economic impact of changes in water availability due to climate change in Switzerland with a 2050 time horizon. To do so, the sectoral structure of the computable general equilibrium model GEMINI-E3 is b ...

Iwa Publishing2015

This paper measures the performance in terms of costs of Swiss drinking water utilities accounting for environmental factors. We estimate a translog stochastic variable cost frontier using two different techniques on an unbalanced panel of 141 water distri ...

Springer Verlag2014

This thesis analyses three distinct aspects of the economics of water distribution in Switzerland. Climate change and mounting pressure regarding the performance of network industries command an understanding of the drivers of cost and efficiency of water ...

The economic impact of climate change and adaptation strategies in the water sector

Marc Vielle, Camille Gonseth, Anne-Kathrin Faust

In the near future, Switzerland is predicted to be affected by climate change, that is bound to impact both water demand and water supply in multiple ways. While water demand by households, firms and agriculture increases, water supply decreases (ProClim a ...

Tropical forest conservation: attitudes and preferences

Andrea Baranzini, Anne-Kathrin Faust

This paper applies contingent valuation to assess public awareness of tropical deforestation; to investigate the willingness to pay (WTP) to conserve tropical forests; and to determine the impact of the payment vehicle on the stated willingness to pay. Abo ...

Cost and performance of Swiss water distribution utilities

Andrea Baranzini, Anne-Kathrin Faust

The poster presents the preliminary results of a study on the costs and efficiency of water distribution utilities in Switzerland. Climate change, water scarcity and growing concerns about the performance of network industries are some of the elements that ...

Water Supply: The cost structure of water utilities in Switzerland

Andrea Baranzini, Anne-Kathrin Faust

This paper estimates a translog cost function for Swiss water utilities. From the cost function, we are able to estimate measures of marginal costs as well as economies of production density, customer density and scale, which are important determinants in ...
