The impact of a carbon tax on economic growth and carbon dioxide emissions in Ireland (2013, background): “Di Maria and van der Werf (2008) argued that leakage should be lower, since changes in climate policy induce technology improvements that reduce carbon.”
How Does Climate Policy Affect Technical Change? An Analysis of the Direction and Pace of Technical Progress in a Climate-Economy Model (2009, positive): “This is supported by the empirical literature that finds a higher elasticity of substitution between capital and labor than between any of the two inputs and energy (see van der Werf, 2008; Kemfert, 1998; Chang, 1994).”
The impacts of biofuel targets on land-use change and food supply: a global CGE assessment (2010, neutral): “Values for substitution elasticities are taken from Burniaux and Chateau, OECD (2010); van der Werf (2008); Timilsina and Shrestha (2006); Ma et al (2010); Jarrett and Torres (1987) and Narayanan and Walmsley (2008).”
Energy efficiency, rebound effects and the environmental Kuznets Curve (2011, methodology): “Recognising the importance of this issue, we are currently engaged in work, initially following the approach of Van der Werf (2008), to estimate sectoral KLEM production functions (both specification and parameterisation), albeit only at the UK national level (data are not currently available to…”
Elasticity of Substitution between Clean and Dirty Energy Inputs - A Macroeconomic Perspective (2013, methodology): “used in Van der Werf (2008)) and gross output.”
Directed Technical Change as a Response to Natural Resource Scarcity (2021, background): “…for themodel for evaluating regional and global effects of greenhouse gas reduction policies (MERGE), Bosetti et al. (2006) for theworld induced technical change hybrid model (WITCH), and van der Werf (2008)—as well as with a broad range of econometric estimates (see, e.g., Dahl and Sterner 1991).8”
The Optimal Climate Policy Portfolio When Knowledge Spills Across Sectors (2010, background): “8 See, among others: van der Werf (2007) and Chang (1994).”
The Great Shift: Macroeconomic Projections for the World Economy at the 2050 Horizon (2012, positive): “The use of such nested CES production function was proposed by David and van de Klundert (1965) to encompass different kinds of input-augmenting technical change, and is employed also in van der Werf (2008) and Markandya and Pedrosso-Galinato (2007).”
Carbon Pricing in the EU: Evaluation of Different EU ETS Reform Options (2016, neutral): “The next level describes the substitution possibilities between the aggregate of energy carriers and value-added, for which a substitution elasticity of 0.5 is assumed (Van der Werf, 2008).”
