Energy Systems Catapult has explored the links between carbon policy and economy-wide productivity, as part of our Rethinking Decarbonisation Incentives project.
The UK has reduced emissions by 42% since 1990 while the economy has continued to grow, but productivity has stagnated. Clear articulation of how carbon policy is linked to productivity is missing, but such a framework would help guide policy decisions.
The findings of the literature review lend themselves to three conclusions for policy, which bring policy design and productivity measurement to the forefront of the debate about how to ensure carbon policy supports and enhances productivity growth.
