    Topics in economic research / Advanced topics in sustainability economics Computer-based numerical simulations are an important method in applied economic analysis for assessing the impacts of policy reforms. This course provides an introduction to simple numerical models that can be used for quantifying the effects of important energy and climate policy regulations. Such regulations build either on market-based instruments (e.g., emission taxes and tradable permits) or command-and-control strategies (e.g., energy efficiency mandates, renewable portfolio standards, and technology phase-out policies).

Computer-based simulations play a key role for quantifying the economic impacts of policy reforms. Among numerical simulation methods, computable partial equilibrium (CPE) models are widely used in applied economic analysis. These models build on microeconomic theory for describing supply and demand behavior of economic agents on markets. Students will learn how to program such models and apply them to the impact assessment of trade, fiscal, or environmental policies.
