6.2, ENG-410 - 210414 - FV01a - Economics of Innovation
02.07.2020, 15:52
- Economics of innovation
- ...
- What it takes for innovation
- Learning by doing
- Economic characteristics of knowledge: joint production, public good
- Intellectual property rights, patents, cooperation vs collaboration
- Types of innovation: basic vs applied, product vs process
- Incentives for innovation: Pigouvian tax, public R&D and subsidies, etc.
- The diffusion of technology: S-shape, disruptive technology
6.1, ENG-410 - 210414 - FV01a - Economics of Innovation
02.07.2020, 15:51
- Economics of innovation
- Why innovation is important and potentially good for the energy transition
- The downside of innovation - unsustainable innovation, market failures regarding innovation
- Static vs dynamic efficiency, fixed costs, lock-in effects, path dependency
- Time lags in environmental and climate policy making, inertias in the systems
5.4, ENG-410 - 210414 - FV02d - International Climate Policy - Equity and fairness

3.4, ENG-410 - 210331 - PT03d - Market
02.07.2020, 15:23
- Markets: workings and efficiency
- Equilibrium of the free competitive market
- Minimum and maximum price
- Perturbation to markets: demand and supply shocks
- Interpreting the market for gasoline since 1975
- Normative quality of market equilibrium
2.2, ENG-410 - 210331 - PT02b - Decoupling
02.07.2020, 15:12
- Conditions for decoupling
- GHG emissions of Swiss aviation
- IPAT+Kaya help understand the conditions for decoupling (same as EGS lecture)
- What efficiency gains and energy substitutions are needed to stabilize the climate
- Limitations of IPAT decomposition
3.3, ENG-410 - 210331 - PT03c - Demand & Supply

02.07.2020, 14:59
- Optimizing agents
- From willingness to pay to demand

- Historic Kuznets curve
- EKC
- Meaning
- Conditions
- Empirical evidence
- Conclusion: activity must decrease
2.1, ENG-410 - 210324 - PT02a - Decoupling
02.07.2020, 14:24
- Decoupling defined
- Definition and illustration: relative and absolute decoupling
- I = GDP x I/GDP
- Refer to INDCs, of which some promise absolute and some relative decoupling
- What is needed is absolute decoupling; relative is only OK if GDP shrinks!
- If you do not believe in absolute decoupling, go for shrinking GDP!
1.3, ENG-410 - 210324 - PT01c - Grand Challenge
02.07.2020, 14:19
- Decarbonisation
- Net-zero by 2050

02.07.2020, 14:15
- Hitting the limits
- Planetary boundaries
- In particular climate change
- What the energy system contributes
- Finite resources
- IPAT
- Extractive economy
- Planetary boundaries
1.1, ENG-410 - 210324 - PT01a - Grand Challenge
02.07.2020, 14:13
- Demographic and economic growth
- Explosion of world population recently
- Also, world economy (GDP)
- To better understand, look at UK post 1820
- population
- GDP
- GDP/capita
- GDP is the product of population x GDP/capita
- IPAT
