Abstract

Using firm-level patent data from 1978 to 2015, I examine the impact of market-based environmental policies on innovation in energy storage. My results highlight the role of environmental taxes, feed-in tariffs for solar energy and tradable certificates for CO\(_2\) emission to promote firms’ patenting activity, whereas renewable energy certificates and energy efficiency certificates discourage it. These results imply the need for more stringent market-based environmental policies to incentivize innovation in energy storage.

基于市场的环境政策是否鼓励储能创新？

利用1978年至2015年的企业级专利数据，我研究了基于市场的环境政策对储能创新的影响。我的研究结果凸显了环境税、太阳能上网电价和可交易的二氧化碳排放证书对企业专利申请活动的促进作用，而可再生能源证书和能效证书则阻碍了专利申请活动。这些结果表明，需要更严格的市场环境政策来激励储能创新。

期刊介绍： As the official journal of the Society for Environmental Economics and Policy Studies and the official journal of the Asian Association of Environmental and Resource Economics, it provides an international forum for debates among diverse disciplines such as environmental economics, environmental policy studies, and related fields. The main purpose of the journal is twofold: to encourage (1) integration of theoretical studies and policy studies on environmental issues and (2) interdisciplinary works of environmental economics, environmental policy studies, and related fields on environmental issues. The journal also welcomes contributions from any discipline as long as they are consistent with the above stated aims and purposes, and encourages interaction beyond the traditional schools of thought.
