Impact of a carbon tax on french tranports sector: A TIMES model for mobility
Résumé
In order provide insights about realistic pathways to low-carbon transports in 2050, we have developed a TIMES model with a strongly detailed module for transports in France. In particular we have developed an original approach that takes households heterogeneity and households investment behavior as well as daily consumption behavior into account. We are then able to better design realistic technology diffusion curves. Then we study the impact of a carbon tax in transports sector and its ability to reduce CO2 emissions.
