We model two existing thermostats and one novel thermostat to see how well they operate under dynamic pricing. The existing thermostats include a traditional thermostat with set temperature goals and a rigid thermostat that minimizes cost while always keeping temperature within a rigid predetermined range. We contrast both with a novel optimizing thermostat that finds the optimal trade-off between comfort and cost. We compare the thermostats’ performance both theoretically and via numerical simulations. The simulations show that, under plausible assumptions, the optimizing thermostat’s advantage is economically large. Importantly, the electricity demand of the rigid thermostat (but not the optimizing thermostat) ceases to respond to electricity prices on precisely the days when the electricity grid tends to be near capacity. These are the times when demand response is the most socially valuable to avoid massive price spikes. The social benefits of the optimizing thermostat may provide incentives for utilities and regulators to encourage its adoption.
我们对两个现有的恒温器和一个新的恒温器进行了建模,以了解它们在动态定价下的运行情况。现有的恒温器包括一种具有设定温度目标的传统恒温器和一种刚性恒温器,它可以将成本降至最低,同时始终将温度保持在严格的预定范围内。我们将两者与一种新型的优化恒温器进行对比,该恒温器在舒适和成本之间找到了最佳权衡。我们从理论和数值模拟两方面比较了恒温器的性能。模拟表明,在合理的假设下,优化恒温器的经济优势是巨大的。重要的是,刚性恒温器(而不是优化恒温器)的电力需求在电网趋于接近容量的日子里不再对电价做出反应。在这些时候,需求反应对于避免大规模价格飙升最具社会价值。优化恒温器的社会效益可能会激励公用事业和监管机构鼓励其采用。

Using over 250,000 U.S. patent citations, we test whether knowledge transfers in the energy sector are sensitive to distance, and whether that sensitivity has changed over time. Controlling for self-citation by inventor, assignee and examiner, multivariate regression analysis shows that physical distance is becoming less important for spillovers with time.
我们使用了超过25万条美国专利引文,测试了能源领域的知识转移是否对距离敏感,以及这种敏感性是否随着时间的推移而改变。控制发明人、受让人和审查员的自我引用,多元回归分析表明,物理距离对溢出效应的影响随着时间的推移而变得越来越不重要。

Many constraints upon REDD policies’ ability to reduce forest loss are common across settings, inherent in the fact that agents making key choices respond also to other factors that influence the overall incentive to clear or to degrade a forest instead of conserving it. The record is mixed, at best, with regard to past public interventions to reduce forest loss, signaling the need to disseminate and to improve conceptual models of policy responses. We summarize 3 distinct models employed by economists to assess policy effectiveness: (1) producer profit maximization in choosing spatial extent and distribution of land uses, given complete markets; (2) rural household optimization given both incomplete markets and varied household assets and tastes; and (3) public optimization within interconnected choices about concessions, corruption and decentralization, all important for degradation (‘D ’ in REDD). Each model’s perspective on impact leads to a review of the evidence. We consider the impacts of forest-conservation and forest-relevant-development policies for the settings and decisions, and at the scales, for which each of the models best applies. Theory and evidence suggest options to increase the impacts of domestic REDD policies.
REDD政策减少森林损失的能力受到许多限制,这些限制在各种情况下都是常见的,这是一个固有的事实,即做出关键选择的行动者也会对其他因素作出反应,这些因素会影响到清除或退化森林而不是保护森林的总体动机。在过去减少森林损失的公共干预方面,记录充其量是好坏参半,这表明需要传播和改进政策反应的概念模型。我们总结了经济学家用来评估政策有效性的三种不同模型:(1)在完全市场条件下,生产者在选择土地利用空间范围和分布时的利润最大化;(2)在市场不完全和家庭资产、品味不同的情况下,农户优化;(3)关于让步、腐败和权力下放的相互关联的选择中的公共优化,这些都对退化很重要(REDD中的“D”)。每个模型对影响的看法都会导致对证据的审查。我们考虑了森林保护和森林相关发展政策对环境和决策的影响,以及在每个模型最适用的尺度上的影响。理论和证据提出了增加国内REDD政策影响的备选方案。

Curtailing Ecosystem Exportation: Ecosystem Services as a Basis to Reconsider Export-Driven Agriculture in Economies Highly Dependent on Agricultural Exports 减少生态系统出口:在高度依赖农产品出口的经济体中,生态系统服务作为重新考虑出口驱动型农业的基础
Pub Date : 2011-09-13 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.1926721

This essay explores the impact of export-driven agricultural policies on the governance of natural capital. Many developing countries have adopted trade liberalization policies that encourage the intensive production of export commodities such as coffee, tea, flowers, and green beans. The primary focus of such policies is maximizing agricultural productivity and global competitiveness, which have been identified as critical factors in promoting economic growth and reducing poverty. When viewed from the perspective of ecosystem services, however, export-driven trade policies are problematic. Export-driven agricultural trade policies leave no incentive to preserve the natural capital upon which the very success of such trade policies is predicated. This essay argues that export-driven agricultural trade policies do not take into account their impact on ecosystem services. Yet, ecosystems provide critical services such as clean and ample water supplies, biodiversity, nutrient cycling, climate regulation, and carbon sequestration. These services are critical to the success of export driven agriculture. In fact, where ecosystem processes fail or are otherwise interrupted, man-made substitutes must be put in place at a substantial cost. In order for developing countries to maximize productivity, this essay argues that export-led trade policies must be sustainable and as such incorporate the need to sustain the productivity of natural capital.
本文探讨了出口驱动型农业政策对自然资本治理的影响。许多发展中国家采取了贸易自由化政策,鼓励咖啡、茶、花卉和绿豆等出口商品的集约化生产。这些政策的主要重点是最大限度地提高农业生产力和全球竞争力,这已被确定为促进经济增长和减少贫穷的关键因素。然而,从生态系统服务的角度来看,出口驱动的贸易政策是有问题的。出口驱动的农业贸易政策没有激励人们保护自然资本,而自然资本正是这种贸易政策成功的基础。本文认为,出口驱动的农业贸易政策没有考虑到它们对生态系统服务的影响。然而,生态系统提供了重要的服务,如清洁和充足的水供应、生物多样性、养分循环、气候调节和碳封存。这些服务对出口驱动型农业的成功至关重要。事实上,在生态系统过程失败或以其他方式中断的地方,必须付出巨大的代价来采用人造替代品。为了使发展中国家最大限度地提高生产率,本文认为,出口导向型贸易政策必须是可持续的,因此必须纳入维持自然资本生产率的需要。

Teaching from the Dirt: Best Practices and Land Use Law Pedagogy 泥土教学:最佳实践和土地使用法教学法
Pub Date : 2011-08-03 DOI: 10.58948/2164-9936.1009
Keith H. Hirokawa
The inspired and compelling article by Patricia Salkin and John Nolon, 'Practically Grounded', suggests that a course in land use law may be well-suited for cutting-edge pedagogical practices. This essay addresses what the authors of Practically Grounded have identified as a present deficiency in legal education: many, perhaps most, future land use lawyers graduate from law school without having looked at a parcel of real property from the perspective of a practicing attorney. This essay explores the opportunities presented in a course that incorporates 'teaching from the dirt' and discusses how such a course can help to connect the dots that lie between legal education and the practice of law. Teaching from the dirt involves using land and real world controversies to facilitate student engagement with the facts and laws that govern land use decision making. Students in such a class are required to perform like lawyers. To accomplish these goals, this course compels students to participate in a simulated regulatory process concerning the development of an actual parcel of vacant property, to engage the controversy on behalf of a client, to navigate the legal process, and to envision how the law applies to the land and influences the outcome of the process.
帕特里夏·索尔金(Patricia Salkin)和约翰·诺伦(John Nolon)撰写的一篇令人鼓舞且引人注目的文章《实践基础》(practical Grounded)表明,土地使用法课程可能非常适合前沿的教学实践。本文解决了《实践基础》一书的作者所指出的当前法律教育的不足之处:许多(或许是大多数)未来的土地使用律师从法学院毕业时,没有从执业律师的角度看待过一块不动产。这篇文章探讨了在课程中提出的机会,包括“从泥土中教学”,并讨论了这样的课程如何帮助连接法律教育和法律实践之间的点。泥土教学涉及到使用土地和现实世界的争议,以促进学生参与管理土地使用决策的事实和法律。这样的课程要求学生表现得像律师一样。为了实现这些目标,本课程要求学生参与一个模拟的监管过程,涉及实际空置物业的开发,代表客户参与争议,引导法律程序,并设想法律如何适用于土地并影响过程的结果。

Benefit Transfer for Environmental Improvements in Coastal Areas: General vs. Specific Models 沿海地区环境改善的利益转移:一般模式与特定模式

In this study, we used choice experiment data to analyze the accuracy of benefit transfer (BT) between two case study areas in Sweden for attributes relevant to the implementation of the EU Water Framework Directive and special consideration zones in marine areas. The accuracy and reliability of a BT based on a model including only easily available socioeconomic information is similar to the accuracy of a BT based on a model that gives the best statistical fit, but requires time-consuming data collection. Further, the former model has almost as good a fit as the latter. The BT error varies significantly across the attributes, regardless of which model is used. The results are inconclusive as to whether socioeconomic adjustments improve transfer or not.
在这项研究中,我们使用选择实验数据来分析瑞典两个案例研究区域之间的利益转移(BT)的准确性,这些区域与欧盟水框架指令的实施和海洋区域的特殊考虑区有关。基于只包含容易获得的社会经济信息的模型的BT的准确性和可靠性与基于提供最佳统计拟合的模型的BT的准确性相似,但需要耗时的数据收集。此外,前一种模式几乎与后一种模式一样适合。无论使用哪种模型,不同属性的BT误差差异很大。关于社会经济调整是否会改善转移,结果尚无定论。

Wildlife, Water Quality and the Public Trust Doctrine: A Means of Enforcing Agricultural Nonpoint Source Pollution Management Plans 野生动物、水质和公众信任原则:执行农业非点源污染管理计划的一种手段
Pub Date : 2011-01-24 DOI: 10.2139/SSRN.1937414
Veronique P. Jarrell-King
Even though the Clean Water Act has proven successful in many respects, it has failed to properly address agricultural nonpoint source water pollution. This lack of sufficient legislation has left our nation’s waters polluted and has detrimentally affected much of the wildlife that depend on these waters for survival. In an effort to prevent further deterioration of our water systems, the public should consider using the public trust doctrine as a means of requiring state and local agencies to consider the public’s interests in wildlife and water quality when developing, regulating, and reevaluating nonpoint source pollution control plans.
尽管《清洁水法》在许多方面被证明是成功的,但它未能妥善解决农业非点源水污染问题。由于缺乏足够的立法,我们国家的水域受到了污染,并对许多依赖这些水域生存的野生动物产生了不利影响。为了防止我们的水系统进一步恶化,公众应该考虑使用公共信托原则作为一种手段,要求州和地方机构在制定、调节和重新评估非点源污染控制计划时考虑公众对野生动物和水质的利益。

Why is it Important for Regulating Reclamation on Indonesian Artisanal Mining to Address Sustainability Development? 为什么监管印尼手工采矿复垦以解决可持续发展问题很重要?
Pub Date : 2010-01-29 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.1589119
Granita R. Layungasri
Artisanal mining in Indonesia has been accused as one of the most disastrous cause of environmental destruction. The recently enacted Indonesian Mining Act No. 4 Year 2009 has provided some clauses that obliged the ASMs to follows some procedures on reclamation. Also, the draft of the relevant implementing regulation has specifically determined some articles regarding of that post-mining activities. Although the government had conducted some actions to discipline the artisanal mining long before 2009, some of these actions were not favorable for the miners’ sustainability itself. This paper shall upbring the problems caused and suffered by the ASM based on their account and their dillematic positions. Nevertheless, its importance to regulated reclamation on artisanal mining to support sustainability development on the artisanal mining itself. The implementing laws and its subordinate rulings on this issue has not yet being issued until the paper is submitted. Statutes approach and literature reviews are conducted as the methodology of the research.
印尼的手工采矿被指责为破坏环境的最具灾难性的原因之一。最近颁布的2009年第4号印度尼西亚矿业法规定了一些条款,要求asm遵循一些填海程序。此外,有关的执行条例草案还具体确定了有关采矿后活动的一些条款。虽然政府早在2009年之前就采取了一些措施来规范手工采矿,但其中一些措施本身不利于矿工的可持续性。本文将从ASM的描述和他们的两难立场出发,提出ASM造成和遭受的问题。然而,对手工采矿进行规范的复垦以支持手工采矿本身的可持续发展是非常重要的。在提交文件之前,有关该问题的实施法律及其附属裁决尚未出台。本研究的研究方法为法规法及文献回顾法。

A Note on Guided Tours for Two Classes of Tourists During the Slack Season 淡季两类游客导游须知
Pub Date : 2009-11-30 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.1529061
A. Batabyal
Recently, Batabyal and Yoo (2009) have conducted a probabilistic analysis of guided tours for a single class of tourists during the slack season. In this note, we extend the above analysis by considering the case of two distinct classes of tourists. Specifically, we first describe a general model that accounts for the common features of guided tours to city attractions and to other scenic locations. Then, we obtain a closed-form expression for the long run fraction of time that the guided tour providing firm under study is occupied and hence unable to immediately satisfy the demand for additional such tours.
最近,Batabyal和Yoo(2009)在淡季对单个类别的游客进行了导游的概率分析。在本文中,我们通过考虑两种不同类别的游客来扩展上述分析。具体来说,我们首先描述了一个通用模型,该模型考虑了城市景点和其他景点的导游的共同特征。然后,我们得到了所研究的导游提供公司被占用的长期时间的封闭形式表达式,因此无法立即满足额外的导游需求。

After four years of efforts to implement the European Directive on strategic environmental assessment (SEA), it remains unclear whether decision-making should actually be subject to the SEA Directive. Unlike the approaches adopted by the European Directive regarding the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) to facilitate its implementation, three usual approaches adopted by the European SEA Directive may jeopardize its actual implementation. These include the following: (1) No indicative list provided for plans and programmes (PPs); (2) lack of thresholds for PPs, which are likely to have significant environmental effects (LSEE); (3) the scope and types of SEA PPs is broader and more diverse than that of EIA projects. One potential method to resolve this implementation issue has been pointed out in Article 3(5) of the SEA Directive, which indicates the need to consider and develop multi-approaches, including case-by-case, list, and mixed approaches. However, the dominant SEA-related scientific and legal studies so far have focused on the development of the case-by-case approach, with less attention paid to the advantages and development of the latter two approaches. The main goals of this article are to develop the list and the mixed approaches to facilitate the actual implementation of the SEA Directive, and to apply such approaches to the energy sector, which serves as an exemplar of a traditionally environmentally-sensitive sector. As such, a broad survey of the following three areas will be conducted: energy decision-making from existing SEA cases, provision of energy decision-making in related international, European, and national legislations, and energy and climate change policy papers in selected countries. This article will further evaluate whether the aforementioned energy decision-making processes meet the criteria outlined in the SEA Directive and whether such decision-making processes should be put on the energy SEA list. Finally, a draft 'SEA Directive: Guidance for Energy Plans and Programmes' will be provided at the end of this article.
在实施《欧洲战略环境评估指令》(SEA)四年之后,决策是否应实际遵守《战略环境评估指令》仍不清楚。与欧洲环境影响评估指令为促进其实施而采用的方法不同,欧洲环境影响评估指令采用的三种通常方法可能危及其实际实施。其中包括:(1)没有为计划和方案提供指示性清单;(2)缺乏可能产生重大环境影响的PPs阈值(LSEE);(3)环评项目的范围和类型较环评项目更为广泛和多样化。SEA指令第3(5)条指出了解决这一实施问题的一种潜在方法,这表明需要考虑和开发多种方法,包括逐案、清单和混合方法。然而,到目前为止,与sea相关的主要科学和法律研究都集中在逐案方法的发展上,对后两种方法的优势和发展关注较少。本文的主要目标是制定清单和混合方法,以促进SEA指令的实际实施,并将这些方法应用于能源部门,作为传统环境敏感部门的典范。因此,将对以下三个领域进行广泛的调查:从现有的SEA案例中进行能源决策,在相关的国际、欧洲和国家立法中提供能源决策,以及选定国家的能源和气候变化政策文件。本文将进一步评估上述能源决策过程是否符合SEA指令中概述的标准,以及此类决策过程是否应列入能源SEA清单。最后,将在本文末尾提供“SEA指令:能源计划和项目指导”草案。
