    • An analysis of a demand charge electricity grid tariff in the residential sector 

      Stokke, Andreas V.; Doorman, Gerard L.; Ericson, Torgeir (Discussion Papers;574, Working paper, 2009)
      This paper analyses the demand response from residential electricity consumers to a demand charge grid tariff. The tariff charges the maximum hourly peak consumption in each of the winter months January, February and ...

    • Beyond Kyoto : CO2 permit prices and the markets for fossil fuels 

      Lindholt, Lars (Discussion Papers;No. 258, Working paper, 1999)
      This paper analyses the markets for fossil fuels given that the limits that the Kyoto Protocol sets on CO2 emissions from Annex B countries extend beyond 2008-2012. To our knowledge we are the first to apply a forward-looking ...

    • Carbon capture and storage technologies in the European power market 

      Golombek, Rolf; Greaker, Mads; Kittelsen, Sverre A.C.; Røgeberg, Ole; Aune, Finn Roar (Discussion Papers;603, Working paper, 2009)
      We examine the potential of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technologies in the European electricity markets, assessing whether CCS technologies will reduce carbon emissions substantially in the absence of investment ...

    • Carbon taxes and the petroleum wealth 

      Rosendahl, Knut Einar (Discussion Papers;No. 128, Working paper, 1994)
      The aim of this paper is to examine the impacts of a global carbon tax on fossil fuel markets. In particular, the effect on the Norwegian, as well as the global, petroleum wealth is studied. Most empirical models of fossil ...

    • Gains from cartelisation in the oil market 

      Berg, Elin; Kverndokk, Snorre; Rosendahl, Knut Einar (Discussion Papers;No. 181, Working paper, 1996)
      In this paper we ask whether OPEC still gains from cartelisation in the oil market despite low producer prices and a modest market share. We apply two intertemporal equilibrium models of the global oil market; one consisting ...

    • Greenhouse gas emissions in Norway : do carbon taxes work? 

      Bruvoll, Annegrete; Larsen, Bodil Merethe (Discussion Papers;No. 337, Working paper, 2002)
      Abstract: During the last decade, Norway has carried out an ambitious climate policy. The main policy tool is a relatively high carbon tax, which was implemented already in 1991. Data for the development in CO2 emissions ...

    • How to quantify household electricity end-use consumption 

      Larsen, Bodil Merethe; Nesbakken, Runa (Discussion Papers;No. 346, Working paper, 2003)
      Abstract: Information about total electricity consumption is available for most households. However, the electricity consumption related to different end uses, e.g. space heating, water heating, lighting and services from ...

    • Market power, international CO2 taxation and petroleum wealth 

      Berg, Elin; Kverndokk, Snorre; Rosendahl, Knut Einar (Discussion Papers;No. 170, Working paper, 1996)
      This paper studies the effects on fossil fuel prices, extraction paths and petroleum wealth of an international carbon tax on fossil fuel consumption. We present an intertemporal equilibrium model for fossil fuels, where ...

    • Optimal oil exploration under climate treaties 

      Berg, Elin; Kverndokk, Snorre; Rosendahl, Knut Einar (Discussion Papers;No. 245, Working paper, 1999)
      In this paper we focus on how an international climate treaty will influence the exploration of oil in Non-OPEC countries. We present a numerical intertemporal global equilibrium model for the fossil fuel markets. The ...

    • Residential end-use electricity demand. Development over time 

      Dalen, Hanne Marit; Larsen, Bodil Merethe (Discussion papers;736, Working paper, 2013-04)
      It is costly and difficult to meter electricity consumption for different end uses, e.g. space heating, lighting and household appliances. We deduce a model for using cross-sectional data for total annual electricity ...

    • Subsidising carbon capture : effects on energy prices and market shares in the power market 

      Aune, Finn Roar; Liu, Gang; Rosendahl, Knut Einar; Sagen, Eirik Lund (Discussion Papers;595, Working paper, 2009)
      This paper examines how ambitious climate policies and subsidies to carbon capture may affect international energy prices and market shares in the power market. A detailed numerical model of the international energy markets ...
