Energy price increases and mitigation policies: Redistributive effects on Italian households
Between July 2021 and March 2023, the Italian government acted to support households’ and individuals’ incomes to help them cope with the exceptional energy and food prices surge, by means of both tariff and income-based fiscal policy measures. In this paper, we perform a microsimulation exercise to quantify the effects of the price increases and of the policy interventions on household expenditure and income. Our results indicate that the regressive impact of the price rises was mitigated by the fiscal measures, which also succeeded in reducing inequality, at risk of poverty and energy poverty. We also observe the relevant role of income-based measures in the South of the country.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Policy Modeling is published by Elsevier for the Society for Policy Modeling to provide a forum for analysis and debate concerning international policy issues. The journal addresses questions of critical import to the world community as a whole, and it focuses upon the economic, social, and political interdependencies between national and regional systems. This implies concern with international policies for the promotion of a better life for all human beings and, therefore, concentrates on improved methodological underpinnings for dealing with these problems.
