Accounting for behavioral effects of increases in the carbon dioxide (CO(2)) tax in revenue estimation in Sweden

• In this paper we describe how behavioral responses of carbon dioxide (CO(2)) tax increases are accounted for in tax revenue estimation in Sweden. The rationale for developing a method for this is a mix between that a CO(2) tax is a primary climate policy tool aiming to reduce CO(2) emissions and that the CO(2) tax generates sizable tax revenues.
