Application of CGE Models as a Climate Policy Assessment Tool: Bibliometric Analysis

Abstract

In this study, we conduct a comprehensive bibliometric analysis aimed at structuring the existing economic literature that employs Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) models, and identifying key trends and main research areas. Using the authors’ methodology, we analyze the sample of 3760 domestic and foreign papers on CGE models published in 759 scientific journals in the period from 1995 to 2021. The main research questions are the applicability of the analyzed models for solving current environmental and economic issues and its relevance in modern realities. We show the potential of CGE models in the analysis of climate policy in Russia.
