SUMMARY:SWEEEP Webinar -Mirabelle Muuls\, Imperial College
DESCRIPTION:Title: Homeworking can be Net Positive\, Evidence from the UK Lockdown during COVID-19 \nPresenter: Mirabelle Muuls\, Imperial College \nAbstract \nThis study explores the effect of shifts in teleworking and work related commuting patterns on energy consumption in the domestics sector during the 2020 spring lockdown in the UK\, and its wider implications towards achieving lower carbon footprint. Smart meter data from 1\,164 participating households shows that it could have been the case that homeworking shifted electricity demand away from the peak\, at high carbon content\, to other times of the day\, at lower carbon content. As a result\, weekly electricity consumption rose by 10.3% on average during lockdown. This may indicate great potential for a nation wide systems based change alongside behavioural changes to further reduce carbon emissions in the future. Isolating from the effect of the grid’s carbon intensity being lower\, electricity driven emissions among participating households increased by a few percentage points less then consumption\, which indicates that a smoothing of demand has a positive impact already. We then control for work related changes in household occupancy during lockdown in our sample of 452 survey respondents. Not only do our results show that working from home accounts for a significant share of the lockdown effect on electricity driven emissions\, but overall\, the household carbon emissions largely decreased in response to changes in commuting patterns. Reductions in carbon emissions are estimated to approach 29% on average\, and by far offset the rise in electricity driven emissions during the same period of time. This is an avenue for companies to reduce their environmental footprint by implementing flexible working scheme and allowing employees to work from home.

SUMMARY:SWEEEP Webinar -Jessica Coria\, University of Gothenburg
DESCRIPTION:Title: Effects of the EU Chemical Regulation: Is there a Chemical Green Paradox? (joint work with Olof Johansson-Stenman) \nPresenter: Jessica Coria\, University of Gothenburg \n  \nAbstract \nWe investigate the effects of the Candidate List of the European chemicals regulation REACH\, which gives advanced safety information to downstream users about substances of very high concern posing risks to human health and the environment. The substances included on the Candidate List will progressively be put forward for inclusion on the Authorization List\, implying that they cannot be manufactured in or imported into the EU from a sunset date\, unless the companies have obtained an authorization for their specific use(s). \nOur theoretical model shows that the Candidate List affects the consumption of hazardous chemicals through different countervailing channels. On the one hand\, disclosure about the hazard properties reduces the demand of the chemicals. On the other hand\, stocks might built up to mitigate the risk that the chemical may be unavailable in the future. We test these theoretical predictions using official registry data on the consumption of hazardous chemicals in Sweden. Our findings suggest that reductions in consumption are only observed for chemicals for which the disclosure effect is large.

SUMMARY:RFF - CMCC - NAVIGATE Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Internalising health-economic impacts of air pollution into climate policy: a global modelling study\n\n\n\nSpeaker:\nLara Aleluia Reis\, RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE)\, Centro Euro-Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici\nModerator:\nJohannes Emmerling\, RFF‐CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE)\, Centro Euro‐Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici\n\n\n\nAbstract: \nClimate change and air pollution are two major societal problems. Previous assessments have looked at the co-benefits of climate policies for air pollution\, but few have optimised air pollution benefits. In the study presented\, the authors lay out a modelling framework that internalises air pollution’s economic impacts on human mortality\, while considering climate constraints and aerosol feedback.\nThe researchers developed a modelling framework based on an integrated assessment model (World Induced Technical Change Hybrid) designed to assess optimal climate change mitigation policies. They included structural and end-of-pipe measures in a detailed process integrated assessment model\, that is hard-linked to air pollution and climate models. They analysed a large set of baseline scenarios\, including five shared socioeconomic pathways. The shared socioeconomic pathways scenarios were also tested with three different levels of value per statistical life and were combined with the Paris Agreement temperature targets (2°C and 1.5°C).\nResults showed that welfare-maximising policies accounting for air pollution benefits reduces premature mortality by 1.62 million deaths annually which is three times greater than the co-benefits of climate policies. Authors also find that global and regional welfare increases when air pollution impacts are internalised\, with no negative repercussions on global inequality.\nAir pollution control strategies are found to be an important complement to structural emission reductions. Accounting for air pollution impacts reduces climate mitigation costs and inequality and increases global and regional welfare. Results are robust to a broad set of scenarios and assumptions\, including debated normative choices on how to value improved health. \n

SUMMARY:La scienza della transizione climatica
DESCRIPTION:(Private event\, Italian) \nDALLE ULTIME EVIDENZE NEL RAPPORTO ONU ALLE NUOVE SFIDE PER UNA TRASFORMAZIONE SOSTENIBILE ED INCLUSIVA \nIn occasione della pubblicazione dei risultati del Sesto Rapporto di valutazione (AR6) del Gruppo Intergovernativo sui cambiamenti climatici delle Nazioni Unite (IPCC) l’evento vuole essere il momento in cui poter discutere alcuni tra i principali risultati raggiunti direttamente con i tre scienziati italiani che hanno contribuito alla sua stesura. \nIl rapporto è la più esaustiva e aggiornata rassegna della conoscenza scientifica sui cambiamenti climatici per i governi\, la comunità scientifica internazionale e l’opinione pubblica mondiale. \nIn particolare\, il racconto si focalizzerà su alcuni dei nuovi risultati del Gruppo di Lavoro III dell’IPCC\, legato alla mitigazione del cambiamento climatico\, ottenibile limitando o prevenendo le emissioni di gas serra e potenziando le attività che rimuovono questi gas dall’atmosfera. Il Gruppo di lavoro III affronta tutti gli aspetti della mitigazione\, compresi la fattibilità tecnica\, i costi e le condizioni abilitanti che permetterebbero l’adozione delle misure. Le sinergie e i compromessi con le misure di adattamento sono di crescente interesse\, così come i co-benefici\, i rischi e i legami con lo sviluppo sostenibile. \n  \nIl team di scienziati\, di cui i tre relatori fanno parte\, fornisce sia una prospettiva a breve termine rilevante per i responsabili delle decisioni nei governi e nelle imprese\, sia una prospettiva a lungo termine che aiuta a comprendere come raggiungere gli ambiziosi obiettivi della politica climatica.

SUMMARY:SWEEEP Webinar Matto Mildenberger
DESCRIPTION:How to get the public on board with climate reforms \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Matto Mildenberger\, UC Santa Barbara\, USA\nModerator: Silvia Pianta\, European University Institute and RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment\, Italy\n\nAbstract:\nThe politics of climate change\, including carbon pricing\, remain challenging. Many climate policies foreground costs and background benefits\, leaving the policies vulnerable to political attacks by fossil fuel interests. In this talk\, I will share a series of experiments testing strategies to build public support for specific climate policies. First\, I will share the results from two information experiments conducted in Switzerland and Canada\, the two countries that have set up rebate programs to accompany national carbon prices. We find limited evidence that individuals who learn about rebates they are currently receiving\, shift their preferences for the rebate-generating policy. In follow-up work\, we provide detailed cost and benefit information with survey respondents in the United States and Switzerland\, tailoring this information to household size and income quintiles. Providing specific benefit and cost information increases support for climate policy\, especially among low-income groups\, in the abstract. However\, the effects disappear in the presence of even mild political messaging. Finally\, we present results from a conjoint experiment conducted in ten of the largest carbon-polluters globally\, testing whether political coalitions for climate reforms expand when integrating social and economic policies into climate reform packages. We find strong evidence that these benefits-oriented packages enjoy increased public support\, even in the presence of realistic information about program costs.

SUMMARY:Crash course: Google Earth Engine with R for geospatial analysis
DESCRIPTION:Speaker:\nGIACOMO FALCHETTA\, CMCC@Ca’ Foscari\, RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE) and International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) \nModerator:\nENRICA DE CIAN\, CMCC@Ca’ Foscari\, RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE) and Venice Ca’ Foscari University \nRequirements: \n\n    ATTENTION: for a better interaction during the seminar\, you had a better request a Google Earth Engine account as well before the course starts at: https://signup.earthengine.google.com/#!/\n    R 3.6+ and RStudio installed on your computer\n    Basic knowledge of the R programming language\n    An understanding of what spatial data and GIS are\n\n  \n  \nAbstract: \nRemote sensing techniques enable collecting large amounts of granular information over large areas (e.g. globally) and at different spatio-temporal resolution scales. Satellite data and other GIS products are increasingly available to everyone and for free\, and they find applications in a growing number of research areas related to climate change\, environmental science\, economics\, and human development. However\, processing highly granular data to fit specific research needs comes at the cost of high computational requirements. Google Earth Engine (GEE) is a free-for-research online toolbox that uses Google cloud computing to quickly process large amounts of spatial data\, including data from Google’s very large data catalogue. GEE thus allows to circumnavigate the local download and processing of raw data by moving these tasks on the cloud. In this crash course we show how to use GEE directly from the R programming language\, and thus integrate GEE processing steps into conventional coding routines\, including the widely used raster and sf R packages. We provide examples of data processing tasks and discuss potential applications.

SUMMARY:RFF-CMCC Navigate Webinar Industry transformative change towards carbon neutrality
DESCRIPTION:Title: RFF-CMCC-NAVIGATE Webinar – Industry transformative change towards carbon neutrality\n\nModerator: Nico Bauer (PIK)\nSpeaker 1: Mariësse van Sluisveld (PBL) – A race to zero – Assessing the position of heavy industry in a global net-zero CO2 emissions context\nSpeaker 2: Alexandre Szklo (COPPE) – The role of biomaterials for the energy transition from the lens of a national integrated assessment model\nSpeaker 3: Silvia Madeddu (PIK) – The CO2 reduction potential for the European industry via direct electrification of heat supply (power-to-heat)\nSpeaker 4: Panagiotis Fragkos (E3M) – Reducing the Decarbonisation Cost Burden for EU Energy-Intensive Industries \nAbstract\nIndustry is the second largest emitting sector and is considered a hard-to-decarbonise one\, due to its heavy reliance on fossil fuels to supply high-temperature heat and raw materials. A clear perspective on the viable decarbonisation pathways for heavy industries like steel\, cement and chemicals\, is needed to reach climate neutrality.\nTask 2.4 of the NAVIGATE project\, brings together seven research teams (PIK\, E3M\, IIASA\, PBL\, COPPETEC\, NTNU and JRC) in a joint effort to improve the modelling of this complex sector. The participants aim at achieving a deeper understanding of the technological transformations needed to reduce industrial emissions while providing insights on the economic and policy implications of this sector’s transformative change.\nThe webinar presents the results of four studies published within the framework of task 2.4 thanks to the NAVIGATE funding support. The studies provide an overview of the possible decarbonisation pathways for industry in the context of a net-zero emissions world by 2050. They dive into specific low-carbon options and their decarbonisation potential\, e.g. biomaterials and  electrification\, and explore climate policies which can support industry transformation. \n  \nMore info will be available soon. \n

SUMMARY:Webinar - Understanding Just Transitions in Coal-Dependent Communities: Case Studies from Mpumalanga\, South Africa\, and Jharkhand\, India
DESCRIPTION:Understanding Just Transitions in Coal-Dependent Communities: Case Studies from Mpumalanga\, South Africa\, and Jharkhand\, India \nSpeaker: Sandeep Pai\, Center for Strategic and International Studies\, 1616 Rhode Island Avenue NW\, Washington\, D.C.\, United States \nModerator: Johannes Emmerling\, RFF‐CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE)\, Centro Euro‐Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici \nAbstract \nThe world has already warmed to over 1°C above pre-industrial levels\, largely due to the burning of fossil fuels such as coal. This is causing ever-increasing rates of climate-related events such as floods\, droughts\, and wildfires. Any steps to keep global warming well below 2°C\, a target en­shrined in the Paris Agreement\, would require rapid reduction in the use of fossil fuels—particularly coal. Although some Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development countries have already made plans to phase out coal-based power\, attaining Paris Agreement goals would require large coal-dependent emerging economies\, including South Africa and India\, to also reduce their long-term dependency on coal. In both South Africa and India\, coal transitions will likely have an outsized impact in certain areas because of the concentration of coal production in a handful of states. We focus on Mpumalanga and Jharkhand—two prominent coal-dependent regions in South Africa and India and analyze coal dependency and just transition prospects in these jurisdictions. We explore coal-related socio-economic dependency in Mpumalanga and Jharkhand and investigate the following key elements of just transition planning: (1) the challeng­es and opportunities associated with diversification of provincial/state economies’; (2) the pros­pects for environmental rehabilitation of coal mines and power plants; and (3) the landscape of stakeholders important for just transition planning\, including underrepresented stakeholders. Overall\, the study finds that phasing out coal in emerging economies will require a nuanced understanding of coal ecosystems and key elements of just transitions in regional contexts. This study illus­trates key considerations for just transition planning in emerging economies based on the above case studies. \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Webinar - Endogenous Abatement Technology
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Ghassane Benmir\, London School of EconomicsModerator: Valentina Bosetti\, Bocconi University and RFF‐CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE)\, Centro Euro‐Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbstract: In this paper\, we first explore empirical evidence on i) the role the ETS carbon pricing system plays in emissions reduction at the Euro Zone (EZ) level\, and ii) fiscal and macro-financial drivers of green innovation. We use macro time series data from EZ and US as well as panel data from the EZ\, receptively. We find that the ETS price plays a significant role in emissions reduction\, as well as in steering green innovation. However\, above a certain level\, it negatively impacts green research and development (R&D)\, whereas long-term loans help boost green R&D. Second\, to investigate the role financial policy could play in stimulating green R&D\, we build a general equilibrium model where we show how green innovation could help achieve the net-zero target at lower output costs compared to fiscal carbon policies. We then expand the model to account for both financial intermediaries and endogenous green growth\, the latter of which implies increasingly efficient abatement. Using Bayesian techniques\, we first estimate the model and then construct counterfactual policy implementation scenarios\, where we show that financial subsidies\, macroprudential policies\, and monetary policy differently aspect the path of the trend growth in green innovation\, and that they all have the same pro-cyclical dynamics. Finally\, we investigate the net-zero emissions target under the three above-mentioned policies in order to assess their efficacy.

SUMMARY:IAMC Annual Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The Integrated  Assessment Modeling Consortium (IAMC) is organizing the Fourteenth IAMC Annual Meeting.\nThe event will take place during the week of 29 November – 3 December 2021. \nThe Conference will\, like last year\, be a fully online event because the COVID-19 pandemic still provides too much uncertainty and the organizers would like to be able to guarantee the participation of the global research community. \nClearly\, while this reduces the opportunity for interaction\, the online event still provides an opportunity for the IAMC community to explore other ways of facilitating scientific collaboration and discussing research. It will also reduce the ecological footprint of our annual event.  The IAMC is committed to converting this crisis into an opportunity and invites its community to participate in this year’s Annual Meeting. We will also build upon the learning curve started with the 2020 IAMC meeting. \n  \nProgramme – The preliminary version of the agenda is available here (date of the last update: November 15th\, 2021). \n  \n\nHOW TO PARTICIPATE\n \nThe Conference will\, like last year\, be a fully online event: registration fees – Register here\nThe Conference Announcement and Call for Abstracts has been officially launched in May 2021. \nInformation: for any questions\, please contact the IAMC Secretariat at the Euro-Mediterranean Center on Climate Change (CMCC). \n\n  \n

SUMMARY:Webinar – Investigating equivalent black carbon (eBC) in an urban environment: spatial analysis and personal exposure of school-age children in Milan
DESCRIPTION:  \nTITLE: Investigating equivalent black carbon (eBC) in an urban environment: spatial analysis and personal exposure of school-age children in Milan \nSpeaker: Luca Boniardi\, Department of Clinical Sciences and Community Health\, University of Milan\nModerator: Lara Aleluia Reis\, RFF‐CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE)\, Centro Euro‐Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici\n\n \nAbstract:\nAir pollution is a global threat to public health\, especially if considering susceptible populations\, such as children. Among others\, equivalent black carbon (eBC) is a primary air pollutant strictly linked with fossil fuels combustion\, i.e\, one of the main sources of air pollution in the urban environment. Besides\, it represents a valuable indicator of adverse health effects related to airborne particles and it is recognized as an important climate forcing agent. The aim of this contribution is presenting the results of a three-year participatory-based research focused on both spatial and temporal distribution of eBC starting from a school catchment area of the Municipality of Milan\, as well as an analysis of the personal exposure of children aged 8-10 years.

SUMMARY:SWEEEP Webinar - The economic cost of climate change
DESCRIPTION:Title: The economic cost of climate change \nSpeaker: Leonie Wenz\, Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) \nModerator: Laurent Drouet\, RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment \nAbstract: Climate conditions have been shown to have a profound impact on various productive elements of the economy\, measurable at the macro-level as changes in Gross Domestic Product (GDP). There is however huge uncertainty as to how big this impact is and if climate shocks affect economic growth also in the long-run. I will present new evidence gained from a unique data set of subnational economic output that comprises more than 1500 regions in 77 countries and discuss implications for climate policy. Specifically\, in recent work\, we have empirically estimated historic temperature impacts at different time scales\, from daily fluctuations to changes in the long-term mean. Our findings show that temperature changes affect productivity levels considerably\, in particular in low-income\, low-latitude regions. Based on our results\, we have projected economic damages under future warming and updated estimates of the social cost of carbon.

SUMMARY:RFF Live | Carbon Border Measures: What Happens with Ambitious Climate Policies?
DESCRIPTION:  \nAmbitious climate policies to achieve net-zero emissions are at risk if international trade leads to leakage—when the source of emissions shifts to jurisdictions with less ambitious policies in place. This event will examine the extent of emissions leakage based on increasingly ambitious policy scenarios. It will then report on the effectiveness of border measures to mitigate leakage\, particularly in economically sensitive sectors. \nJoin us for a virtual RFF Live event on Wednesday\, November 3\, as an international set of scholars present recent modeling results that explore the implications of policy proposals currently being considered in the European Union and United States on emissions leakage and climate ambition. \nSpeakers\n• Carolyn Fischer\, Resources for the Future\, World Bank\n• Takashi Homma\, RITE Systems Analysis Group\n• Ramiro Parrado\, RFF-CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment\n• Billy Pizer\, Resources for the Future (Moderator)

SUMMARY:Expert Workshop on Economic modelling of climate and related tipping points
DESCRIPTION:The OECD is organising a virtual Expert Workshop on Economic modelling of climate and related tipping points. \nThe workshop will take place on the 18th and 19th of October\, from 14:00-16:45 (CEST). \nThe workshop will bring together outstanding experts to discuss the current state of scientific understanding surrounding abrupt changes to the climate and economic systems due to climate change and climate-related policies. Models that underpin most economic analyses of climate change rarely include the possibility of abrupt changes to the climate or economic systems. Nevertheless\, such changes – climate and related tipping points – are a major determinant of the optimal level of policy effort. \nPlease click here for additional information on the workshop and for the detailed agenda. \nThe workshop will take place via Zoom and advance registration is required. \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the event.

SUMMARY:SWEEEP Webinar - Gabriel Kreindler (Harvard)
DESCRIPTION:SWEEEP Webinar with Gabriel Kreindler (Harvard) –  \nOptimal Public Transport Networks: Evidence from the World’s Largest Bus Rapid Transit System in Jakarta \n\nDescription \nOptimal Public Transport Networks: Evidence from the World’s Largest Bus Rapid Transit System in Jakarta\n(joint with Arya Gaduh\, Tilman Graff\, Rema Hanna\, and Benjamin A. Olken)\n\nDesigning public transport networks involves tradeoffs between extensive geographic coverage\, frequent service on each route\, and relying on interconnections as opposed to direct service. These choices\, in turn\, depend on individual preferences for walking to stations\, waiting for buses\, and transfers. We study these tradeoffs by examining the world’s largest bus rapid transit system\, in Jakarta\, Indonesia\, leveraging both a series of bus network expansions and a randomized bus allocation experiment. Using detailed ridership data and aggregate travel flows from smartphone data\, we analyze how new direct connections\, changes in bus travel time\, and wait time reductions increase ridership. We then estimate a transit demand model with multi-dimensional travel costs\, matching moments from the route launches. We find riders are highly sensitive to wait time. Finally\, we find the optimal bus network numerically and study how its shape depends on the measured travel preference parameters.\n\n\n  \n\n\n

SUMMARY:The coal phase-out and the labour market transition pathways: the case of Poland
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nWe study the labour market transition pathways driven by the coal phase-out in Poland between 1990 and 2050. First\, we apply the concept of branching points to describe the transformation of coal mining in the context of three labour market trends: structural changes\, demographically driven changes in the labour supply\, and educational upgrading. We show that in the 1990s and 2000s\, the labour market options of the miners who lost their jobs were poor\, as the trajectories of all of these trends worsened their labour market prospects. However\, as these trends have reversed since the 2010s\, it is likely that in the future\, the employment effects and the social consequences of the coal phase-out in Poland will be more positive than they were in the past. Second\, we find substantial homogeneity in the employment structures of mining subregions and of particular mines\, which suggests that regional approaches to managing the transition are possible. Third\, our projection of the supply of and the demand for labour up to 2050 indicates that decarbonisation will lead to a surplus of Polish hard coal mining workers by 2030. However\, the projected shortages of workers in other industrial sectors will create opportunities for worker reallocation that should be facilitated by policy measures. \nSpeakers\nJan Frankowski\, Institute for Structural Research (IBS)\, University of Warsaw\, Poland\nJakub Sokołowski\, Institute for Structural Research and University of Warsaw\nJoanna Mazurkiewicz\, Poznań University of Economics and Business and Institute for Structural Research\nModerator: Luis Sarmiento\, RFF‐CMCC European Institute on Economics and the Environment (EIEE)\, Centro Euro‐Mediterraneo sui Cambiamenti Climatici\, Italy

SUMMARY:RFF- CMCC Navigate Webinar  30 June 2021
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nThe deployment of solar photovoltaic (PV) technology has consistently outpaced expectations over the past decade. However\, long-term prospects for PV remain deeply uncertain\, as recent global scenarios span two orders of magnitude in installed PV capacity by 2050. In this study\, authors systematically compile an ensemble of 1\,550 scenarios from peer-reviewed and influential grey literature\, including IPCC and non-IPCC scenarios\, and apply a statistical learning framework to link scenario characteristics with foreseen PV outcomes. Results show that a large portion of the uncertainty in the global scenarios is associated with general features such as the type of organization\, energy model and policy assumptions\, without referring to specific techno-economic assumptions. IPCC scenarios consistently project lower PV adoption pathways and higher capital costs than non-IPCC scenarios. In the work here presented\, authors thus recommend increasing the diversity of models and scenario methods included in IPCC assessments to represent the multiple perspectives present in the PV scenario literature. \nSpeaker: Marc Jaxa-Rozen\, University of Geneva\, Switzerland\nDiscussant: Sibel Eker\, Energy\, Climate\, and Environment (ECE) Program at IIASA\, Austria Moderator: Céline Guivarch\, CIRED\, Ecole des Ponts\, France

SUMMARY:CMCC-RFF Policy Session: Policies to promote a Just Transitions – lessons from the EU and the US
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nCMCC and RFF jointly organized a session entitled “Policies to support workers and communities in the transition to clean energy economies in the US and the EU” during the last EAERE Conference (EAERE 2020\, virtual). At the session\, participants laid the basis for cooperative work around the topics of how to promote an equitable clean energy transition for workers and fossil-fuel dependent communities\, with particular focus on the design and implementation of specific transition policies.Over the past year\, many political and policy development were implemented. Over this period\, the participants to the EAERE 2020 policy session worked to draft research papers and policy briefs analyzing how several policies both in the US and in Europe could support a Just Transition towards carbon neutral societies.\nThis policy session will showcase the progress made by the different research teams “one year after”\, including the research jointly carried out over the past year and other activities pursued within ReNEWT (Research Network on Energy Workforce Transitions)\, a research network on equitable transition which was strengthened over the past months (https://www.renewt.org/).\nThe different teams will discuss their novel contributions to the understanding of\, and the debate around\, the principal socio-economic challenges facing coal and carbon-intensive regions today. The session will highlight successful strategies which have emerged in recent years and the principal differences between regions and countries that are coping well and those that are not. The debate will then be linked to recent policy developments\, including a discussion of the Just Transition Fund and Just Transition Mechanisms within the broader context of the European Green Deal. Panelists will also highlight the implication emerging from the COVID19 pandemic on energy transition in carbon intensive regions. Discussions will further push the debate\, started last year\, around how to devise more effective ways of involving citizens and better understand energy-related views and attitudes\, ultimately leading to greater social acceptability as well as more durable governance arrangements and socioeconomic benefits. \nParticipants\n\nPetrescu\, Senior Fellow at the Mossavar-Rahmani Center for Business and Government at the Harvard Kennedy School and the Founder and President of Pur si simplu verde (Simply Green).

SUMMARY:Heterogeneous transition expectations and capital investment choice
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\nThe aim of this article is to study how heterogeneous expectations concerning the low-carbon technological transition affect aggregate capital investment choices in the electricity sector. We develop a simple model where firms choose between two technological options by evaluating their future profitability prospects\, within a finite planning horizon. Profit expectations are affected by beliefs about the speed of the technological transition and the associated stranding of existing high-carbon capital stocks. We assume firms’ transition expectations to be distributed around a central expectation scenario characterised by `rational stranding’\, and heterogeneity of opinions to increase non linearly in psychological time. We then explore the space defined by our set of behavioural parameters\, and study how central transition expectations\, opinion diversity and planning horizons affect the allocation of physical investments between the two technologies.

SUMMARY:A lab in the (track and) field? The effect of air pollution on physical performance: Evidence from sports competitions
DESCRIPTION:Abstract\n“A lab in the (track and) field? The effect of air pollution on physical performance: Evidence from sports competitions”A large share of the world’s population is employed in manual labor. This paper estimates the effect of air pollution on purely physical tasks analyzing half a million amateur track and field competition results. In contrast to previous studies\, the setting allows excluding productivity effects through the cognitive channel. Exploiting the panel nature of the data and high dimensional fixed effects\, I find that a 10 µg/m3 increase in PM 2.5 reduces performance by 1.1% of a standard deviation. The effect grows with the duration of effort\, indicating that occupations requiring low-intensity and sustained effort may be more affected by air pollution than occupations requiring occasional short but intense bursts of energy. \nFrancesco Granella
