Abstract

We study the effect of energy and transport policies on pollution in two developing country cities. We use a quantitative equilibrium model with choice of housing, energy use, residential location, transport mode, and energy technology. Pollution comes from commuting and residential energy use. The model parameters are calibrated to replicate key variables for two developing country cities, Maputo, Mozambique, and Yogyakarta, Indonesia. In the counterfactual simulations, we study how various transport and energy policies affect equilibrium pollution. Policies may induce rebound effects from increasing residential energy use or switching to high emission modes or locations. In general, these rebound effects tend to be largest for subsidies to public transport or modern residential energy technology.

两个发展中国家城市的能源政策与污染:定量模型
我们研究了两个发展中国家城市的能源和交通政策对污染的影响。我们使用了一个定量均衡模型,其中包含住房、能源使用、居住地点、交通方式和能源技术的选择。污染来自通勤和住宅能源使用。我们对模型参数进行了校准,以复制莫桑比克马普托和印度尼西亚日惹这两个发展中国家城市的关键变量。在反事实模拟中,我们研究了各种交通和能源政策如何影响均衡污染。政策可能会导致居民能源使用量增加或转向高排放模式或地点,从而产生反弹效应。一般来说,对公共交通或现代住宅能源技术进行补贴时,这些反弹效应往往最大。
