Carbon Tax and Revenue Recycling: Impacts on Households in British Columbia

Abstract This study investigates the distributional implications of the revenue-neutral carbon tax policy in British Columbia. We use a computable general equilibrium (CGE) model of the Canadian economy and disaggregate households into deciles by annual income using data from a large household expenditure survey.

Public Finance Options for Recycling Carbon Tax Revenue in Germany

FinanzArchiv
We use a micro simulation model for Germany to show that it is optimal to use part of carbon tax revenue for handing out climate dividends, part to lower income taxes, and part to make up for public revenue shortfalls. The optimal recycling mix is tilted towards climate dividends away from tax reductions as relative inequality aversion increases.
