Multiplexing efficiency of environmental taxes in ensuring environmental, energy, and economic security

Abstract

This paper assesses the multiplexing efficiency of environmental taxes in ensuring environmental, energy, and economic security which is an integral part of sustainability in six European countries that are leaders in the Environmental Performance Index. This study aims to confirm the hypothesis that environmental taxes and payments could simultaneously affect changes in important environmental, energy, and economic security as well as sustainability parameters. Not all the previously selected taxes, which affect the parameters of all three areas of environmental, energy, and economic sustainability and security can ensure their simultaneous growth. Calculations made for the period 1994-2019 showed that in the system of environmental taxation of Denmark, five environmental taxes and fees provide an increase in the integrated level of environmental, economic, and energy security and sustainability; in Belgium, two environmental taxes are characterized by multiplex efficiency; in France, seven environmental taxes and payments; in Austria, four; in Finland, one; and in the UK, four. The paper's findings could create the basis for improving environmental taxation systems in the countries to increase comprehensive national security growth and ensure sustainable development path of the countries.

Impact of Environmental Taxation on Environmental Sustainability in Nigeria

“…Environmental taxes, according to the report, encourage energy conservation and the adoption of renewable energy sources. This viewpoint was originally expressed by [14], who claimed that environmental taxes deter anti-environmental behaviour. Green taxes, according to [15]., are intended to make polluters pay a price that reflects the cost of their externalities.…”

Improving the quality of project management at energytech through marketing in support of sustainable and environmental development of energy economics

“…The fundamental basis of the research carried out in this article was laid by the scientific concept of EnergyTech as a field of high technologies in the energy economy. Project management at EnergyTech focuses on internal business priorities (Goyal et al, 2014;Sisodia et al, 2020;Štreimikienė et al, 2022;Teichmann et al, 2020), and therefore, this type of management is usually quantified in terms of costs and benefits, as well as their ratio (financial efficiency) (Buah et al, 2020;Martinez and Komendantova, 2020;Onubi et al, 2022).…”

AI’s contribution to combating climate change and achieving environmental justice in the global economy

“…The exacerbation of climate change phenomena in the "Decade of Action" highlighted a new, much less studied component of the environmental inequality of countries from the standpoint of differences in the favorable climatic conditions for human life and health (Mupedziswa and Kubanga, 2017;Štreimikienė et al, 2022).…”
