1. Transport and environment incentive policy instruments : effects and interactions
Sammanfattning : This dissertation studies issues related to the evaluation of the effects and interactions of transport and environmental incentive policy instruments. Essay 1: Green cars sterilize congestion charges: a model analysis of the reduced impact of Stockholm road tolls calibrates a modal-choice model with data from the Stockholm road toll and uses it to study the sensitivity of congestion toll effects to some seemly subtle changes in the toll system design and external circumstances.

2. Effects of Certainty on Decision Making under Uncertainty: using subsidies to reduce production of environmental harmful products
Sammanfattning : The present thesis investigates the effects of an environmental policy, with the focus on producers’ decision making, which may be used as a means to decrease the production of environmentally harmful products. A subsidy system reimbursing a reduction in sales and/or production is with this aim experimentally investigated by simulating a market. LÄS MER
3. Renewable Energy Market for Rural Electrification in Developing Countries: Country Case Nepal
Sammanfattning : The availability of abundant renewable resources, lack of fossil fuels and difficult geographical terrain for grid line extensions contribute to the advantages of renewable based decentralized rural electrification in Ne-pal. Solar home system (SHS) and micro-hydro are the most commonly adopted off-grid renewable energy technologies in the country. LÄS MER
4. Ecology across Boundaries : Food web coupling among and within ecosystems
Sammanfattning : Cross-boundary movements of energy and material are ubiquitous. Freshwater ecosystems receive nutrients, dissolved, and particulate organic matter from adjacent terrestrial ecosystems, whereas terrestrial ecosystems mainly receive prey organisms and detritus deposited by physical processes such as floods from freshwater ecosystems.

5. Experimental Simulations of a Subsidy System to Reduce Production of Environmentally Harmful Products
Sammanfattning : The environment on earth is threatened by increasing trends in consumption and production causing the highest emission levels ever. Therefore, finding solutions targeting these trends are needed. LÄS MER
