商品描述

This book sets out to reframe the theory of real options so that it can be used to support environmental investments for climate change adaptation and mitigation. Climate change policy often involves making decisions that concern extended time periods, and doing so under considerable uncertainty. By expanding and broadening the framework of real options, this book first introduces readers to new ways of quantifying investment decisions that can much more effectively address the shape and size of the uncertainty than traditional approaches using Net Present Value. In turn, the second part of the book applies this new theoretical framework to climate change policy by presenting a number of examples, and by providing a general perspective on investment decisions related to climate change and how to prioritize them.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

本書旨在重新構建實際選擇理論,以便能夠支持氣候變遷適應與緩解的環境投資。氣候變遷政策通常涉及在相當長的時間範圍內做出決策,並且在相當大的不確定性下進行。通過擴展和拓寬實際選擇的框架,本書首先向讀者介紹量化投資決策的新方法,這些方法能比傳統的淨現值(Net Present Value)方法更有效地應對不確定性的形狀和大小。接著,本書的第二部分將這一新的理論框架應用於氣候變遷政策,通過呈現多個範例,並提供有關氣候變遷相關投資決策的一般觀點以及如何優先考慮這些決策。

作者簡介

Benoît Morel did his Phd in theoretical high energy Physics in the university of Geneva. His post-doctoral career took him to Harvard university, Caltech and Stanford university before he joined the faculty of Carnegie Mellon University, in the department of Engineering and Public Policy. At Carnegie Mellon his research was at the interface between mathematics and policy analysis. In addition to do research on the subject, he taught a course in Real Options for more than ten years.
Together with his colleagues in his department at Carnegie Mellon University, he participated to a variety of projects in climate change policy analysis.
