The role of markets and policies in delivering innovation for climate change mitigation
分析了市场激励和国际国内政策如何改变能源系统以实现温室气体稳定目标，并评估了气候技术政策的有效性和效率，对政策制定者和研究者有参考价值。
This paper identifies market incentives and international and domestic policies that could technologically alter energy systems to achieve greenhouse gas stabilization targets while also meeting other societal goals. I consider the conceptual basis and empirical evidence on the effectiveness and efficiency of climate technology policies. The paper reviews the literature on trends and prospects for innovation in climate change mitigation and examines the evidence on induced innovation and the implications for the choice of technology policy. I then consider the impact of technological advances on the environment, the role of direct government support for R&D, and the complementarities between policies internalizing environmental externalities and those aimed at environmental innovations. © The Author 2010.
