States and even local governments are increasingly realizing the need for long-term sustainable energy-environment planning as an integral part of their economic development program. These sub-national units are progressively playing a more active role in advancing policies for the reliability, environmental sustainability, and exploring the economic development impact of their energy resources...

This chapter reviews recent applications of computable general equilibrium (CGE) modeling in the analysis and evaluation of policies which affect interactions among multiple markets. At the core of this research is a particular approach to the data and structural representations of the economy, which we elaborate through the device of a canonical static multiregional model. We adapt and extend ...

The Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) established under the Kyoto Protocol allows industrialized Annex I countries to offset part of their domestic emissions by investing in emissions-reduction projects in developing non-Annex I countries. We present a novel CDM modeling framework which can be used in computable-general-equilibrium (CGE) models to quantify the sector-specific and macroeconomic ...
