  • Response to the Peer Review Report EPA Base Case Version 5.13 Using IPM U.S
    Response to the Peer Review Report EPA Base Case Version 5.13 Using IPM U.S. EPA, Clean Air Markets Division SECTION 1 INTRODUCTION In October 2014, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) commissioned a peer review of the EPA Base Case version 5.13 using the Integrated Planning Model (IPM). 1 RTI International, an independent contractor, facilitated the peer review of the EPA Base Case v.5.13 in compliance with EPA’s Peer Review Handbook (U.S. EPA, 2006) and produced a report from that peer review. RTI selected five peer reviewers (Anthony Paul, Meghan McGuinness, Walter Short, Paul Sotkiewicz, and John Weyant) who have expertise in energy policy, power sector modeling and economics to review the EPA Base Case v.5.13 and provide feedback. The peer reviewers evaluated the adequacy of the framework, assumptions, and supporting data used in the EPA Base Case v.5.13 using IPM, and they suggested potential improvements. IPM is a multiregional, dynamic, deterministic model of the U.S. power sector that provides forecasts of least-cost capacity expansion, electricity dispatch and emission reliability constraints. The EPA uses the platform to project and evaluate the cost and emissions impacts of various policies to limit emissions of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, mercury, hydrogen chloride, and carbon dioxide (CO2). The independent peer review panel provided expert feedback on whether the analytical framework, assumptions and applications of data in the EPA’s Base Case v.5.13 using IPM are sufficient for the EPA’s needs in estimating the economic and emissions impacts associated with the power sector due to emissions policy alternatives.

  • A Ranking of Journals in Economics and Related Fields
    German Economic Review 9(4): 402–430 A Ranking of Journals in Economics and Related Fields Klaus Ritzberger Vienna Graduate School of Finance and Institute for Advanced Studies Abstract. This paper presents an update of the ranking of economics journals by the invariant method, as introduced by Palacio-Huerta and Volij, with a broader sample of journals. By comparison with the two other most prominent rankings, it also proposes a list of ‘target journals’, ranked according to their quality, as a standard for the field of economics. JEL classification: A12, A14. Keywords: Journal ranking; economics journals; business administration journals; finance journals, citations. 1. INTRODUCTION The ranking of professional journals in economics has attracted growing interest during the past decade (see Kalaitzidakis et al., 2003; Ko´czy and Strobel, 2007; Kodrzycki and Yu, 2006; Laband and Piette, 1994; Liebowitz and Palmer, 1984; Liner and Amin, 2006; Palacio-Huerta and Volij, 2004). Journal rankings have been used to evaluate the research performance of economics departments (e.g. Bommer and Ursprung, 1998; Combes and Linnemer, 2003; Lubrano et al., 2003) and of individual economists (e.g. Coupe´, 2003). They provide ‘objective’ information about the quality of publications in a world where academic publications have reached an overwhelming extent and variety. While half a century ago a well-trained economist may have comprehended all key developments in economics at large, today it is difficult to follow even the pace of subfields. Thus, the judgment by an individual academic is accurate only in so far as it concerns her or his own field of specialization.
