چکیده انگلیسی


• This study analyses the renewable energy policy instruments for EU and US.
• The panel data set covers 27 EU countries and 50 US states over 1990–2008.
• Electricity consumption appears to influence the deployment of renewables.
• Environmental and energy security concerns appear not to influence renewables.
• Results suggest that feed-in tariffs, tenders and tax are effective policies.

Renewable energy policies are implemented to promote the diffusion of renewable energy sources within the market. However, their effectiveness on renewable electricity capacity remains subject to uncertainty. This paper addresses what renewable policy instruments are effective ways to increase capacity of renewable energy sources. This study employs a 1990–2008 panel dataset to conduct an econometric analysis of policy instruments, namely, feed-in tariffs, quotas, tenders and tax incentives, in promoting renewable energy deployment in 27 EU countries and 50 US states. The results suggest that renewable energy policy instruments play a significant role in encouraging renewable energy sources, but their effectiveness differs by the type of renewable energy policy instruments. Findings reveal that feed-in tariffs, tenders and tax incentives are effective mechanisms for stimulating deployment capacity of renewable energy sources for electricity, while the other commonly used policy instrument – quota – is not.
