SITE Seminar | Shocking electricity prices and carbon tax aversion

10/20/2025, 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM
Join us for the next SITE Seminar! On October 20, 2025, we are joined by Jens Ewald (University of Gothenburg), who will present his research “Shocking Electricity Prices and Carbon Tax Aversion.” Using a geographic regression discontinuity design and survey data from Swedish households, the study shows that exposure to sharply increased electricity prices significantly fuels opposition to carbon taxation—driven in large part by belief distortions about affordability and fairness.
