Citations in the corpus

• Fossil fuel supply and climate policy: exploring the road less taken (2018, background): “Governments can also create instruments to acquire production rights and compensate resource owners to leave fossil fuel reserves undeveloped or otherwise restrict their production (Harstad 2012; Larrea and Murmis 2015).”
• Just cuts for fossil fuels? Supply-side carbon constraints and energy transition (2020, methodology): “For formal modelling applied to coal, see Harstad (2012).”
• An Introduction to the Green Paradox: The Unintended Consequences of Climate Policies (2015, background): “As one option, Harstad (2012) suggests a supply side climate policy.”
• Closing coal: economic and moral incentives (2014, background): “5 For careful analyses of these issues see Hoel (1994), (1996) and Harstad (2012). 6 An additional instrument that could be used to address leakage is a border tax adjustment, see Jakob et al. (2013). 7 Inter-temporal issues are developed in the next section”
• Consumption-based GHG emission accounting: a UK case study (2013, background): “There are several advantages of an extraction-based emissions system, the key advantage being that global emissions can be regulated with only a few participants (Harstad, 2012; Whalley & Wigle, 1991).”
• Does the EU ETS cause carbon leakage in European manufacturing? (2019, background): “Lower global energy prices may lead to an increase in the demand for fuels in the foreign region, leading to increased energy use there and, thus, carbon leakage (Harstad 2012, Jensen et al. 2015).”
• Path dependence, innovation and the economics of climate change (2014, background): “15 Alternatively, developed countries could engage in supply-side policies by buying and preserving fossil fuels, pushing up their prices and thus giving developing countries a clear price incentive to switch to cleaner technologies (Harstad, 2012).”
