SUMMARY:Call for Proposals Deadline: NBER Research Project
DESCRIPTION:The NBER, with the generous support of the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, is c
arrying out a research project on the distributional consequences of new en
ergy policies. The project is directed by Catie Hausman (University of Mich
igan and NBER) and Arik Levinson (Georgetown University and NBER). This cal
l for proposals seeks contributions in the form of research papers focusing
on the relationship between new energy policies and distributional equity.
Papers may address distributional issues in various ways: between producer
s and consumers, or between individuals who differ by income, race, age, an
d in other ways. Papers proposing new approaches to studying the distributi
onal consequences of policies, or assessing new underlying relationships be
tween policies and welfare, are of particular interest.
Rese arch questions that could be addressed include, but are not limited to:
Proposals will be evaluated by a review committee comprising Lala Ma (University of Kentucky) , Lucija Muehlenbachs (University of Calgary), Sheila Olmstead (University of Texas), Ed Rubin (University of Oregon), and the two project co-director s.
Authors of eight paper proposals will be invited to participate. T hey will present work in progress at an on-line “preconference” on May 23-24, 2022, and final papers at a capstone in-person research conference at a location to be determined on June 15-16, 2023. Authors will be invited, but not obligated, to submit completed paper s to a special issue of a peer-reviewed journal in energy or environmental economics. The NBER will pay a modest honorarium to the authors and will co ver hotel and economy-class conference travel for up to two authors per pap er. All co-authors will be invited to attend the capstone conference.
To be considered, proposals must be submitted by 11:59pm EDT, Janu ary 28, 2022, to http://conference.nber.org/confsubmit/ backend/cfp?id=NEPs23.
All submissions must include a conflict o f interest statement indicating whether any members of the research team ha ve ties to the energy industry or any other potential conflicts that might bear on their proposed research. Decisions of the review committee will be announced by the middle of February, 2022.
