چکیده انگلیسی
Using a 50-state panel dataset covering the years 1990-2011, we empirically examine the effectiveness of national and state-level policies that encourage wind energy deployment in the U.S. This study is the first to use econometric techniques to examine both the impact of the flagship federal policy - the production tax credit - and the influence of the production tax credit on the effectiveness of state-level policies. First, we show that the national production tax credit alone has been effective in promoting wind energy deployment - 1.4Â GW per year on average - in the U.S. Second, we show that production tax credit influences the effectiveness of state-level policies in promoting wind deployment. For example, in the presence of the production tax credit, mandatory green power option increases wind deployment in a state by 200Â MW per year on average. Third, we show that the array of renewable energy resources within a given state positively influences the responsiveness to state and national wind policies.
