Coping with climate change: India-EU cooperation on renewable energy and clean technology / Upadhyay, Dinoj Kumar   Journal Article
Upadhyay, Dinoj Kumar Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2014.
Summary/Abstract Promotion of renewable energy and application of clean technology are essential for limiting emissions of GHG and facilitating environmentally compatible development. Although India and the European Union (EU) recognise their vulnerability to climate change, they differ on their 'normative claims' of the global climate change regime. India and the EU do not agree on emission cut targets. They can cooperate in multiple ways in the areas of clean technologies, renewable energy, research and development and sharing knowledge for sustainable development planning, etc. India has adopted a comprehensive National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC), which comprises of both mitigation and adaptation measures to climate change. The implementation of the NPACC would be crucial in shaping a policy for inclusive and sustainable development. Hence, cooperation between India and the EU can take place in areas of the NAPCC that would help not only in coping with climate change, but also in enhancing India's economic relations as well as development partnership with the EU.

Explaining adoption of end of pipe solutions and clean technolo: determinants of firms' investments for reducing emissions to air in four sectors in Sweden / Hammar, Henrik; Lofgren, Asa   Journal Article
Hammar, Henrik Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract We estimate firms' probability of technological adoption based on a firm level panel data set from four major sectors in Sweden between 2000 and 2003. Technological adoption is measured by environmental protection investments (EPI), and we focus particularly on differences between the decisions to adopt end of pipe solutions and clean technologies. We find that there seem to be different drivers for investments in end of pipe solutions and clean technologies, in particular we show that the probability of a firm investing in clean technologies to reduce emissions to air increases if the firm has expenditures for R&D related to environmental protection (green R&D), while price on energy is important for the investment in end of pipe solutions. Furthermore, our results indicate complementarity between the two types of technologies.
