A note on energy sourcing and Federal Tax Credits to wind investments
The Production Tax Credit (PTC) has been critical for U.S. wind power expansion. I show that replacing the PTC with a subsidy designed to optimally vary by contract type increases wind capacity deployment while significantly reducing the fiscal cost of subsidization.
期刊介绍:
Many economists today are concerned by the proliferation of journals and the concomitant labyrinth of research to be conquered in order to reach the specific information they require. To combat this tendency, Economics Letters has been conceived and designed outside the realm of the traditional economics journal. As a Letters Journal, it consists of concise communications (letters) that provide a means of rapid and efficient dissemination of new results, models and methods in all fields of economic research.
