Short description

This study seeks to inform preparations to revise carbon-energy taxes in Switzerland by providing an overview of experiences with carbon and energy taxes in selected OECD countries. It aims to provide insights from relevant literature and international experiences on key issues relating to the introduction and implementation of carbon and energy taxes, including the design of taxes (objectives and rationale, tax rates and adjustments over time, tax base, revenue raised, revenue use, exemptions granted), as well as the environmental effectiveness of the taxes and their economic and social impacts.
