Note: synthesis from several studies made in Western Europe. When taxes are offset by a reduction of deductions on work, than wealth grows, (white dots). When they are offset by other reductions of deductions/taxes or by subsidies, then wealth decreases (black dots).

Note: If price elasticity of households is low (resp. high), a variation in energy price induces a low (resp. high) variation in consumption. The eviction effect means that an investment in decarbonization slows down the evolution of competence in other sectors of economy and on general productivity.

Interpretation: the level of tax rebate is based on energy spendings  of the most vulnerable revenue category, which is the 30% of “modest” households who have the biggest energy part in their budget.

Note: the tax rebate simulated here corresponds to a tax exemption on energy spendings permitting mobility and domestic activity considered as basic needs. For example, a level of tax rebate on 30% of fuel spending represents about 3400km of car driving in 2001. We consider there that these 3400 km are a basic need. Therefore, households pay taxes beyond this level, or receive on the contrary the amount of tax corresponding to the difference if they are under that level.

Reading : the creation of 200 000 jobs at macroeconomic level, enables an average increase of 1,11% of the income of households belonging to the poorest 5% of households, whereas that of the richest 5% only increases by 0,15%.

Note: the range of 25 000 – 600 000 jobs created is taken from Ghersi and Hourcade (2000) and corresponds to different adaptation scenarios in sectors of activity for different levels of carbon tax.
