Existing literature presents various determinants of energy demand, but the intricate relationship between energy demand and climate policy uncertainty (CPU) remains underexplored. Utilizing the Fourier-augmented ARDL (FA-ARDL) model and drawing from monthly data spanning March 1995 to August 2022, we investigate the impact of CPU on energy demand in China. Our study finds a significant long-run co-integration between climate policy uncertainty (CPU) and renewable energy demand. The FA-ARDL analysis shows that CPU negatively impacts renewable energy demand in both the short and long term, as it leads to higher renewable energy prices. These increased prices deter stakeholders from investing in or adopting renewable technologies, making renewables less competitive compared to traditional energy sources. Our findings are helpful for policymakers to communicate the climate objectives since mitigating climate-related uncertainties would substantially drive renewable energy consumption.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54200,"journal":{"name":"Economic Analysis and Policy","volume":"84 ","pages":"Pages 374-390"},"PeriodicalIF":7.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142173765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We find that if the VDP is unanticipated, it is likely to be optimal for a revenue-maximizing government to introduce a VDP with relatively generous terms, i.e., a low or even negative penalty. When anticipated, however, the VDP is neither incentive compatible nor optimal, as it induces otherwise compliant taxpayers to evade tax. A VDP can then only be beneficial if tax evasion induces an external social cost beyond the direct revenue foregone, e.g., due to adverse effects on overall tax morale. In contrast to the common view that VDPs should come along with additional enforcement effort, we find that governments should relax enforcement if the VDP itself provides more powerful incentives to come clean.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54200,"journal":{"name":"Economic Analysis and Policy","volume":"84 ","pages":"Pages 455-474"},"PeriodicalIF":7.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142230385","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The transmission mechanism suggests that oil price uncertainty increases information asymmetry, prompting IPO firms to use underpricing to signal their profitability and ensure the participation of investors.

Kerosene use is also substantially lower for the top of the economic distribution, especially in the 2018 survey. In contrast, economic resources have a weak relationship with solar lantern use. Future policies can be devised with reference to our results showing a more robust relationship between assets, rather than income, and household energy transitions.
