abstract: |
Green technological progress bears a strong potential to alleviate climate change,
but its utilization is contingent on factors which are by nature impossible to anticipate
or predict. Developing stochastic optimisation models, we explore how the decision
to invest in research and development towards greener technologies is influenced by
environmental policies in a world of technical and policy uncertainty. The models
are applied to offshore wind park investments and investments into energy-saving technologies.
Policies studied are e.g. energy taxes and quotas as well as research subsidies.

Grüner technologischer Wandel hat viel Potential, den Klimawandel zu mildern. Das
Ausschöpfen dieses Potentials hängt jedoch von schwer abschätzbaren Faktoren ab. Mit
Hilfe von stochastischen Optimierungsmodellen wird untersucht, wie die Entscheidung
beflügelt werden kann, in die Entwicklung grüner Technologien zu investieren, auch
wenn die Unsicherheit über technischen Fortschritt und politischen Rahmenbedingungen
groß ist. Diskutierte Anwendungsbeispiele sind Investitionen in Meereswindparks oder
Energiespartechnologien. Analysiert werden z. B. Energiesteuern und Forschungssubventionen.
