"Integrating Advanced CGE Modeling and AI-Based Scenario Analysis for Climate Policy"
by Christoph, Joel


Abstract
This paper develops and applies a dynamic Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model to analyze how climate policy instruments—including carbon taxes, border carbon adjustments, and green technology subsidies—interact with global trade and sectoral dynamics. An AI-based scenario module explores uncertainties in technological innovation and emission pathways, yielding novel insights into the robustness and cost-effectiveness of different policy mixes. Results suggest that flexible, well-targeted climate interventions can achieve meaningful emissions reductions with relatively moderate impacts on GDP, especially when supplemented by innovation incentives. We also highlight methodological advances in CGE modeling, including on-the-fly parameter updating and the incorporation of distributional considerations through micro-simulation. These findings underscore the importance of integrating emergent technologies and advanced modeling techniques to inform evidence-based climate policies on both national and global scales.
